Chimeric antigen receptor T (CAR T) cell therapy represents a milestone in leukemia treatment. CAR T works by genetically ...
T cell lymphomas are notoriously difficult to treat because immunotherapy, despite being one of the most effective therapies for treating cancer, can't easily distinguish cancerous T cells from ...
Our immune system relies on T cells to fight infections. But T cells don't just show up and react—first, they train, get a ...
Fred Hutch Cancer Center scientists have developed an experimental strategy to give genetically engineered CAR T cells help they'd normally find within lymph nodes — but on the go, within the tumor.
Researchers hope to undertake clinical studies in multiple cancers, including ovarian cancer, glioblastoma, and others.
A naturally occurring byproduct of liver metabolism—the ketone body, β-hydroxybutyrate (BHB)—can strengthen the fitness and antitumor activity of CAR T cells. The findings, reported on March 6, 2026 ...
Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified the cellular mechanisms that cause immune cells to differentiate and ultimately lose function during viral infection, findings that could improve ...
A Phase 1 trial testing TG Therapeutics' CAR T-cell therapy azer-cel in progressive forms of MS is now recruiting across ...
In a phase 1 study, anti-CD7 chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells induced complete remission in children and adults with relapsed or refractory T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), with 82% ...
Imagine a super-charged immune cell that can launch a focused attack on stubborn solid tumors - a smart fighter that destroys cancer cells for days without tiring. USC biomedical engineers have made ...
Scientists have uncovered new genetic rules that determine whether the immune system’s “killer” T cells remain powerful long-term defenders or become worn out and ineffective. By building a detailed ...
An integrin mutation impairs skin T cell migration, enabling HPV proliferation that causes warts and lesions in a rare genetic dermatological condition.
