Scientists solve a major roadblock in cancer cell therapy: Study
Updated : 2 months 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.
