In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the ...

Georgetown University's Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center researchers have identified a new way to reprogram T cells, ...

Jonas Salk quietly built the polio vaccine through rigorous, methodical work in Pittsburgh: treating patients, refining data, conducting massive trials, before unveiling results that altered the ...

As people age, their immune system function declines. T cell populations become smaller and can't react to pathogens as quickly, making people more susceptible to a variety of infections. To try to ...

Peer-reviewed discovery platform and data in PNAS show that single transcription factor modulation reverses aging-associated gene expression and restores healthy cellular and tissue function in models ...

The mechanical properties of tissue matrix are crucial for maintaining cell health and function. With aging, tissue matrix loses its mechanical integrity and exhibits altered biophysical properties, ...

Cancer cells rapidly adapt to treatments, developing resistance that makes chemotherapy less effective. Researchers used an existing anti-inflammatory drug to disrupt cancer cells’ ability to adapt by ...

Atomic defects in nanodiamonds enable both precise heating of lysosomes inside macrophages and nanoscale temperature measurement, revealing that localized thermal spikes trigger immune cell ...
