Researchers map real-time signals that trigger T cell activation
A cluster of recent studies has sharpened the scientific picture of how T cells switch on, tracking the molecular signals ...
The orchestration of T cell activation is central to immune defence and self-tolerance. Recent advances have revealed that T cells integrate signals from their antigen receptors alongside a network of ...
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 ...
A team identified herpes virus saimiri, which infects the T cells of squirrel monkeys, as a source of proteins that activate pathways in T cells that are needed to promote T cell survival. Recent ...
Immunotherapy has transformed cancer care, offering a way to harness the body’s own immune system to fight tumors. But even with these advances, many patients still don’t respond. One major barrier to ...
A new paper published today in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key ...
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 ...
NGF pathway drives tumour growth. Innate lymphoid cells type 2 (ILC2s) are key regulators of tissue homeostasis and inflammation. In cancer, ILC2s can exhibit pro-tumoral function ...
