Researchers from the Keck School of Medicine of USC have developed a new type of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell that ...

Cancer drug resistance is the devastating reason that treatments fail and cancers metastasize, spreading to distant sites ...

STEM-engineered CAR T cells performed as well as or better against cancer cells than did FDA-approved CAR T cells and kept their cancer-fighting abilities for longer.

Mitochondrial defects are associated with the development of diseases such as type 2 diabetes (T2D). Studies in mice and in human tissues, by researchers at the University of Michigan, have now found ...

In several disease conditions, including infections and cancers, innate immune activation and nutrient scarcity occur together.

Cell signaling is crucial for cells to communicate and function correctly. Disruptions in these pathways, caused by genetic mutations or environmental factors, can lead to uncontrolled cell growth, ...

A new study published in Science Advances reveals evidence of electrical signaling and coordinated behavior in choanoflagellates, the closest living relatives of animals. This elaborate example of ...

Purdue University researchers found that a subset of epidermal cells in plant leaves serves as early responders to chemical ...

USC researchers have developed a new type of chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell that elicits a more controlled immune response to cancer in mice—effectively killing cancer cells, including those ...
