T Cell

T-cells are a critical component of the adaptive immune system and are indispensable in protecting humans from pathogenic infections.

Adoptive T Cell Therapy Methodology

Adoptive T cell therapy is a type of immunotherapy that has the ability to target cancer cells through inherent mechanisms of the immune system.

Targeted inhibition of a 'signal jammer' protein may improve tumor response to immunotherapy

Targeted inhibition of a "signal jammer" protein may improve how tumors respond to immunotherapy. Published today in Nature, a new study demonstrates how some cancer cells use the protein voltage-dependent anion channel 2 (VDAC2) like a signal jammer to prevent the body's anticancer systems from communicating with the immune system.
