Dendritic cells (DCs) have emerged in the field of cancer immunotherapy as the most potent professional antigen-presenting ...

For her Ph.D. at VUB and KULeuven, Aarushi Caro created a kind of systematics for dendritic cells, a special group of immune cells in the fight against cancer. Until now, there was a lot of confusion ...

Diakonos Oncology reports that an interim analysis of a Phase I open label trial of its dendritic cell vaccine (DOC1021) showed substantially increased survival of glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) ...

A new study by researchers at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai overturns a longstanding assumption about how mRNA ...

The personalized immunotherapy works by activating the body’s natural immune response to target and eliminate cancer cells. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted Fast Track designation to ...

The immune system consists of inflammatory and regulatory T cells (Tregs) that promote or dampen immune activity, respectively. These cells react to specific antigens that specialized cells like ...

LMU researchers have shown that a particular type of immune cell acts more flexibly than previously thought - with potential for new therapeutic approaches. As part of the innate immune system, ...

The immune cell repertoire is composed of many different cell types that are orchestrated in response to infection and other pathogens that enter the body. As a result, the body can defend itself ...

A study shows mitochondrial electron flow keeps dendritic cells primed, regulating gene activity and T-cell activation. The ...
