Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have identified a new way to reprogram T cells, ...

Researchers have identified a new way to reprogram T cells, which are infection and tumor-fighting white blood cells, so that they have a superior memory, thereby making them more effective in killing ...

Antigen-driven TCR signaling in the epidermis during CD8+ TRM differentiation results in a lower TGFβ requirement for persistence and increased proliferative capacity that together enhance epidermal ...

In a recent study published in Nature Methods, researchers developed "scAtlasVAE," a deep-learning model to integrate large-scale single-cell ribonucleic acid (RNA) sequencing (scRNA-seq) data, ...

Higher levels of CD4-positive naïve T cells in patients receiving CAR T-cell therapy for multiple myeloma are associated with ...

Killer immune cells destroy cancer cells and cells infected by virus. These CD8 + T cells are activated after detection of viral infection or growth of "non-self" tumor cells. However, in chronic ...

As the trained killers of the immune system, cytotoxic T cells silently save our lives every day—vanquishing viruses before they can run amok, and putting nascent cancer cells out of business before ...
