Most cancer treatments—from chemotherapies to engineered immune cells—have a host of side effects, in large part because they affect healthy cells in the body at the same time as targeting tumor cells ...
Scientists have zeroed in on a critical weak spot behind a rare but devastating brain autoimmune disorder often known as ...
In this study, the researchers analyzed more than 275 million T-cell receptor sequences from over 2,200 individuals and used artificial intelligence ...
Scientists in the Blavatnik Institute at Harvard Medical School and MIT have created a new family of tools that, for the first time, illuminates the missing half of how the immune system uses ...
Jacob Lalezari of CytoDyn shares insights about CCR5-targeting therapy for cancer, including triple negative breast cancer and colorectal cancer.

During the recent Covid-19 pandemic, the rate of serious illness and death was jarringly high in older populations. Why? Weakening immune systems — as we age, we become more vulnerable to infections, ...
High-resolution microscopic images of T cells that have been engineered with TGF-beta SNIPRs (shown in red) as they bind to TGF-beta (shown in green). The SNIPRs activate once the receptors fold into ...
