Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based ...

Interleukin-9 (IL-9) is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a critical role in regulating immune responses, allergic inflammation and host defence mechanisms. T helper 9 (TH9) cells, a specialised ...

Scientists have demonstrated a dependable method to generate large numbers of helper T cells from stem cells, removing a long-standing obstacle that has limited immune-based cancer treatments. The ...

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 ...

Researchers at the Medical University of Vienna have taken a closer look at a previously largely unknown component of the immune system: the protein molecule TRAT1 (T Cell Receptor Associated ...

The TERZO study evaluates Copiktra for relapsed or refractory nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma, lacking a standard treatment. The trial compares Copiktra with Gemzar or Bendeka, focusing on ...

CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) serve as central effectors in cancer immunotherapy by directly eliminating tumor cells. However, current clinical therapies face significant limitations. These ...

Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease that affects millions worldwide and can have a devastating impact on patients' lives. Yet, about one in three patients respond poorly to existing ...

A phase I study of a next-generation CAR T cell therapy showed a 52 percent complete remission rate for patients with relapsed/refractory lymphoma. A next-generation "armored" CAR T cell therapy ...

Just before the pandemic took center stage in 2020, scientists at a T cell memory conference convened to discuss a less than traditional topic: nomenclature. Prior to the event, the workshop ...
