Scientists solve a major roadblock in cancer cell therapy: Study
Updated : 1 month, 3 weeks ago IST
Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based cancer therapy. Helper T cells act as the immune system's coordinators, helping other immune cells fight longer and harder.

Researchers discover that unique immune cells stop metastatic cancer
Updated : 1 year, 5 months ago IST
The majority of cancer deaths are caused by metastatic disease, which occurs when cancer spreads from the primary tumour to other areas of the body. and researchers understand how cancer cells escape the primary location to seed new tumours, it is unclear why some cancer cells produce new t

Fever drives enhanced activity, mitochondrial damage in immune cells: Stud
Updated : 5 months, 1 week ago IST
Fever increases immune cell metabolism, proliferation, and activity, but it also causes mitochondrial stress, DNA damage, and cell death in a specific subgroup of T cells, according to Vanderbilt University Medical Centre researchers.
