High-acuity αβT cell receptor (TCR) recognition of peptides bound to major histocompatibility complex molecules (pMHCs) requires mechanosensing, a process whereby piconewton (pN) bioforces exert ...

Immunotherapy has revolutionized cancer treatment by harnessing the power of T cells to attack tumors. But, even when these treatments are successful, scientists often struggle to understand exactly ...

Typically T cells of the immune system respond to a specific feature (antigen) of a microbe, thereby generating protective immunity. As reported in the journal Immunity, an international team of ...

Regulatory T cells protect the body from misdirected or overly excited immune responses. A new study highlights previously unknown characteristics of these cells that could guide the development of ...

MENLO PARK, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Deepcell, a pioneer in artificial intelligence (AI)-powered single-cell analysis to fuel deep biological discoveries, today shared the news of two significant ...

Researchers have created a “biocomputer” made up of lab-grown human brain tissue and electronic circuits that they say can perform tasks including voice recognition. The idea is to build a “bridge ...

Trinity researchers, along with UK collaborators, have created a simple but powerful diagnostic tool, which they believe will change a patient's life in the diagnosis of a type of blood cancer that ...

CU Anschutz researchers uncovered a link between a type of mucosal immune cell and gut inflammation, finding that the cells ...
