Researchers have found a reliable way to grow helper T cells from stem cells, solving a major challenge in immune-based ...

Researchers at the University of British Columbia developed a reliable method to produce helper T cells from stem cells by precisely tuning Notch signaling, enabling scalable, off-the-shelf immune ...

For the first time, researchers at the University of British Columbia have demonstrated how to reliably produce an important type of human immune cell-known as helper T cells-from stem cells in a ...

Scientists have demonstrated a dependable method to generate large numbers of helper T cells from stem cells, removing a long-standing obstacle that has limited immune-based cancer treatments. The ...

Researchers at the Medical University of Vienna have taken a closer look at a previously largely unknown component of the immune system: the protein molecule TRAT1 (T Cell Receptor Associated ...

The IGFL2 gene encodes a cytokine found in primates, which are closely related to humans. In the joint tissue of people with rheumatoid arthritis, peripheral helper T (Tph) cells express IGFL2, which ...

During infections, the immune system needs to distinguish foreign antigens that are expressed by invading bacteria and viruses from self-antigens that are expressed by cells of the body. If not, the ...

Advancements in HIV/AIDS research, drug development, and clinical practice since the 1980s have made it possible for people living with HIV to lead long, productive lives and keep the virus in check ...
