Genetically engineered CAR T cells expressing artificial receptor proteins are increasingly used in the clinic to boost the ...

CAR T-cell therapy is expected to expand quickly across autoimmune skin diseases following an anticipated regulatory approval that might come as soon as this year.

A research team of the University Medical Center Mainz has succeeded in observing for the first time how G protein-coupled receptors in living cells actually respond to activating substances. The ...

One of the most exciting advances in cancer treatments in the past decade is the development of T cell immunotherapies, in which a patient's own immune system is trained to recognize and attack ...

Adhesion G protein-coupled receptors have a large extracellular region (shown in green and orange) that extends into space outside the cell. Almost 35% of drugs approved by the Food and Drug ...

A basic function of cells is that they act in response to their environments. It makes sense, then, that a goal of scientists is to control that process, making cells respond how they want to what ...

Scientists at École Polytechnique Fédérale Lausanne (EPFL), and at UNIL-CHUV, University Hospital Lausanne (CHUV) and University of Lausanne (UNIL) have developed a computational method to create ...

Scientists have discovered that T cell receptors activate through a hidden spring-like motion that had never been seen before. This breakthrough may help explain why immunotherapy works for some ...

Details and references regarding individual diseases are provided in the Supplementary Appendix. CIDP denotes chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy, Covid-19 coronavirus disease 2019, and ...
