UCSF researchers develop customizable SNIPR sensors that activate engineered cells only near tumors, promising precise cancer ...

Immune cells are capable of detecting infections just like a sniffer dog, using special sensors known as Toll-like receptors, ...

Label-free biosensor assay detects Toll-like receptor signals and even discriminates between different signaling pathways.

Immune-cell therapy shrank children's brain tumors, restored neurologic function and—for one participant—erased all ...

So, researchers at Northwestern started their journey to figure out why this might be happening. They discovered when someone ...

In healthy brains, immune cells called microglia patrol for damage, clearing away debris and harmful proteins. But in the ...

Researchers have identified a possible way to make glioblastoma cells vulnerable to different types of immunotherapy. The strategy, which they demonstrated in cells in the lab, forces brain cancer ...

The miniature models have the potential to significantly speed up vaccine development, advance cancer treatment research, and enhance health outcomes for a wide range of diseases. To gain deeper ...

Researchers have developed an innovative CAR T-cell therapy to combat glioblastoma, the most common malignant brain tumor in ...

A new drug strategy that regulates the tumor immune microenvironment may transform a tumor that resists immunotherapy into a susceptible one, according to a new study.

A $2.3 million National Cancer Institute grant will fund a University of Cincinnati Cancer Center study to develop a new ...
