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

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 ...

Interleukin-9 (IL-9) is a multifunctional cytokine that plays a critical role in regulating immune responses, allergic inflammation and host defence mechanisms. T helper 9 (TH9) cells, a specialised ...

The TERZO study evaluates Copiktra for relapsed or refractory nodal T-follicular helper cell lymphoma, lacking a standard treatment. The trial compares Copiktra with Gemzar or Bendeka, focusing on ...

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 ...

During infections, the immune system needs to distinguish foreign molecules from invading bacteria and viruses from molecules that are made by cells of the body. If it can’t, the immune system can ...

When the heart's muscle is weakened or injured due to a heart attack, it can make it hard for the heart to pump enough blood ...

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 ...

A study reveals that kimchi powder activates defenses and regulates inflammation, adjusting the body's immune response.

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, ...

Immune cells called B cells make antibodies that fight off invading bacteria, viruses and other foreign substances. During their preparation for this battle, B cells transiently revert to a more ...
