UCLA and Stanford Medicine researchers, in collaboration with scientists from the University of Utah and Columbia University, ...
UCSF scientists found a precise way to turn on cancer-fighting immune cells inside the body. This more potent form of CAR-T has the potential to treat many more cancers.
T cell development is a tightly regulated process that transforms immature thymocytes into mature T cells with distinct functionalities. In the thymus, precursor cells undergo a series of selection ...
The powerful gene-editing technique CRISPR–Cas9 might offer a way to make safer, more effective cancer-fighting immune cells ...
Pharmaceutical companies are shifting from the development of autologous cell therapies to allogeneic cell therapies.
A paper published in Cell highlights how researchers have leveraged AI-based computational protein design to create a novel synthetic ligand that activates the Notch signaling pathway, a key driver in ...
The researchers say that, to their knowledge, this is the first demonstration of programmable, site-specific integration of a large DNA payload into T cells in vivo.
The Notch signaling pathway plays a pivotal role in determining cell fate, especially in the development and function of T cells. But mimicking this highly mechanical, contact-dependent pathway in the ...
The US Food and Drug Administration’s (FDA) guidance documents offer sponsors greater clarity on trial designs and control strategies that could potentially accelerate the development of in vivo CAR-T ...
