When the body encounters infection or cancer, cytotoxic T lymphocytes attach to the affected cell and form the immune synapse ...

Activated immune cells secrete tiny capsules bearing DNA that can enter other immune and tumor cells to stimulate the body's ...

T cells, which target infection and disease, can become more effective after a meal. The finding might help improve ...

The immune system relies on complex interactions between cells to orchestrate effective responses against pathogens and tumours. Among these, T cells play a pivotal role through their ability to ...

Cancer immunotherapy is built on a simple but powerful idea: the immune system can recognize and destroy cancer cells if it ...

Organ transplantation remains the cornerstone treatment for end-stage organ failure. While conventional broad-spectrum immunosuppression effectively controls acute rejection, it fails to address ...

The immune system is a complex response of various cells that detect and elicit mechanisms to eliminate disease. This ...

Chimeric antigen receptor-T (CAR-T) cell therapy represents a major breakthrough in cancer immunotherapy, providing remarkable clinical benefits for ...

Researchers have reported two major immunology advances: Weill Cornell Medicine scientists found that activated T cells secrete DNA-filled vesicles that can enhance immune responses against tumors, ...

It develops from the abnormal multiplication of T cells, or T-lymphocytes, a type of white blood cell essential for immune system function. The specific treatment course and prognosis for T-cell ...

Yale researchers have identified CD8+ T cells as a key driver of kidney damage in lupus, challenging the long-standing focus on B cells. The discovery may explain why some patients do not respond to ...
