Sickle cell disease (SCD) altered CD8+ T-cell chromatin architecture, triggering ferroptosis and weakening antitumor immunity. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) treatment restored chromatin interactions and ...

CD8+ T cells divide cysteine between pathways that control growth and cancer-killing activity. Adjusting its use can enhance ...

CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) serve as central effectors in cancer immunotherapy by directly eliminating tumor cells. However, current clinical therapies face significant limitations. These ...

Researchers at the Max Delbrück Center and the University of Oxford have found that a cellular housekeeping function called autophagy—by which cell components are broken down and recycled—plays a ...

A protein that helps cancer cells hide from the immune system may have a critical weakness, according to research that could ...

A common eye-health nutrient, zeaxanthin, may also help the body fight cancer more effectively. Scientists discovered it strengthens T cells and enhances the impact of immunotherapy treatments. Found ...

Fred Hutch Cancer Center molecular biologist Dr. Kevin Barry just received a $270,000, two-year grant from the American ...

The immune system acts as a critical sentinel of organismal aging, integrating the sensing of physiological states with the ...

Like the surface of the moon, new research published today in Cell finds the existence of craters on the surface of melanoma cells that serve as immune hubs, becoming major sites for tumor killing.
