In this thesis, we have investigated a specific type of T cell, the γδT cell, and its potential as an immunotherapy against cancer. We aimed to improve current γδT cell-based therapies and demonstrate ...

When immune cells strike, precision is everything. New research reveals how natural killer and T cells orchestrate the ...

Scientists have found a way to transform hard-to-treat tumors into targets for the immune system. Using two protein stimulators, they activated strong T-cell and B-cell responses and built immune ...

The evolution of immunotherapy, featuring CAR-T cells and senolytics, highlights potential in cancer treatment and challenges ...

In the fight against cancer, immunotherapy—which aims to boost the body's natural defenses against cancer—is experiencing remarkable growth. Most of these treatments are based on CD8 T lymphocytes, ...

Research shows CRATERs correlate with immunotherapy success, boosting CD8+ T cells in melanoma. Find out how this discovery ...

Multiple sclerosis, which affects around one in 500 people in Switzerland, is an autoimmune disease in which immune cells ...
