Reprogramming T cells to overcome tumor challenges

Solid tumors often provide a challenging environment for the T cells of our immune system. By reprogramming the metabolism of T cells, scientists at the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Cancer Biology and their collaborators demonstrated a remarkable ability to boost the immune system's fight against cancer, showing promise for improving patient outcomes in difficult-to-treat malignancies.

Research identifies iron as crucial driver of stroke-related cell death processes

Ischemic stroke continues to rank among the top causes of death and long-term disability globally. While advances in acute treatments like clot retrieval and thrombolysis have improved outcomes, the challenge of managing reperfusion injury—a phase when restored blood flow can ironically harm brain tissue—persists.
