T lymphocytes are central components of the adaptive immune system, tasked with recognising and responding to a wide array of antigens. Their activation is initiated through the engagement of the T ...

The activation and regulation of T cells are fundamental to immune homeostasis and effective defence mechanisms. Ubiquitin ligases, such as c-Cbl and Cbl-b, serve as pivotal regulators by targeting ...

Efficient T-cell engineering is crucial for the success of CAR T-cell therapy research, but it requires multiple labor-intensive steps, including T-cell isolation, activation, and transduction.

A new multi-pronged antibody design could help immune cells receive stronger activation signals against cancer. Researchers at the University of Southampton have identified a new strategy that could ...

Scientists have discovered that T cell receptors activate through a hidden spring-like motion that had never been seen before. This breakthrough may help explain why immunotherapy works for some ...

Metabolism guides the activation states of regulatory T cells, the immune cells that prevent inappropriate activation of the immune system. St. Jude Children's Research Hospital scientists recently ...

Magnetic nanoparticles engineered T cells inside living mice and guided them into solid tumors, achieving over 90% tumor ...

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 ...

This figure shows primary T cells modified using two approaches. CAR receptors are introduced through targeted DNA insertion (top), while CRISPRoff mRNA and guide RNAs silence additional genes through ...
