A study led by researchers at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares (CNIC) has identified a mitochondrial "checkpoint" that enables dendritic cells to efficiently activate T ...

Cancer immunotherapy is a strategy that turns the patient’s own immune cells into a “search-and-destroy” force that attacks the tumor’s cells. The “search” immune cells are the dendritic cells, which ...

Cancer immunotherapy transforms a patient’s immune cells into a “search‑and‑destroy” force against tumors. But many cancers learn to camouflage themselves from dendritic cells—the immune system’s ...

In a new study published in Science titled, “Mitochondrial metabolism and signaling direct dendritic cell function in antitumor immunity,” researchers from St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital have ...

Researchers at the Centro Nacional de Investigaciones Cardiovasculares Carlos III (CNIC) show that active mitochondria maintain dendritic cells, the immune system's sentinels, in a "ready-to-respond" ...

UH engineers helped develop an mRNA-based strategy that boosts cancer-fighting T cells and, in mouse studies, helped ...

Treating the brain cancer glioblastoma (GBM) demands more than conventional strategies due to a mix of factors including the cancer’s genetic complexity, invasive growth, and immune resistance. A new ...

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 ...
