Northwestern Medicine scientists have identified the cellular mechanisms that cause immune cells to differentiate and ...

Scientists analyzing human and mouse pancreatic lymph nodes (PLNs) and spleens have identified a distinct subset of CD4 memory helper T cells associated with type 1 diabetes (T1D). Reported by ...

By Hugo Francisco de Souza A novel CAR-T cell approach targets amyloid plaques in preclinical Alzheimer models, raising the possibility that engineered immune therapies could reshape future treatment ...

Lung cancer cells are able to take advantage of a person’s immune system, specifically T cells, to protect the tumor, according to new research recently published in Cancer Immunology Research.

Higher levels of CD4-positive naïve T cells in patients receiving CAR T-cell therapy for multiple myeloma are associated with longer PFS, suggesting T-cell composition may serve as a biomarker to ...

Contrary to public concerns, receiving frequent COVID-19 booster vaccinations will not weaken the immune system, providing reassurance to vulnerable groups facing new variants. Study: No evidence of ...

T cells are essential components of the immune system and play critical roles in immune responses against infections, tumors, and autoimmune diseases. T cells are highly heterogeneous, with distinct ...

Findings suggest engineered CD4+ T cells can modify Alzheimer's pathology and improve CNS immune responses, highlighting a ...

The brain and spinal cord were once thought to enjoy immune privilege, meaning they were believed to be largely insulated from immune activity elsewhere in the body. In recent years, however, ...
