For the first time, researchers at the University of British Columbia have demonstrated how to reliably produce an important type of human immune cell—known as helper T cells—from stem cells in a ...

Data presented at ASH 2025 suggest earlier-line use of cilta-cel leads to better outcomes in multiple myeloma because patients have fitter immune systems and less exhausted T cells, improving CAR T ...

When a transplanted organ arrives, it’s like a controlled burn that risks becoming a wildfire. The body’s innate immune system senses damage signals, like heat shock proteins (HSP70), and sounds the ...

Why do immune cells that are supposed to eliminate viruses suddenly turn against our own body? There are instances where killer T cells—which are meant to precisely remove virus-infected ...

In most solid tumors, high numbers of regulatory T (Treg) cells are associated with poorer outcomes because they dampen the immune system's ability to fight against a tumor. Subscribe to our ...

Doctors in the UK have genetically modified immune cells borrowed from healthy people to create a ‘living drug’ that stays in ...

This study shows that SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination generate strong, highly specific spike-binding immune responses ...
