Study shows stem-like T cells could aid immunotherapy in cancer treatment
Updated : 4 years, 6 months ago IST
Washington [US], September 3 (ANI): In a new study by Yale Cancer Center, researchers show stem-like T cells within certain lymph nodes could be natural cancer fighters. Targeting these T cells, which are a type of white blood cells, with immunotherapy drugs could increase the number of canc

Study explores link between infant antibiotic exposure, future immune resp
Updated : 4 years, 11 months ago IST
Washington [US], April 11 (ANI): An irreversible loss of regulatory T-cells in the colon is found in infants who were exposed to antibiotics in utero and infancy. T cells are a valuable component of the immune system's response toward allergens in later life, after only six months.
