Cell-based immunotherapies have transformed cancer treatment, yet their widespread use remains constrained by safety risks, ...

Yale researchers have uncovered a way to make a type of white blood cells known as natural killer cells — which kill infected, damaged, or malignant cells in the body — more effective against cancer.

Chimeric antigen receptor natural killer (CAR-NK) cell therapy is emerging as a promising next-generation immunotherapy with ...

Cancer immunotherapy has been transformed by engineered T cells, but those bespoke treatments are slow, expensive, and out of ...

Researchers have made a breakthrough in cancer treatment by harnessing the disease-destroying abilities of the body’s natural killer cells. Their novel nanodrones selectively target a tumor, enabling ...

For years, chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapies have led the way in cell-based immunotherapy, offering hope to many patients with certain blood cancers. But now, researchers believe the ...

In a study that further corroborated these observations, scientists found that cyclic fasting in mice improved their antitumor responses mediated by natural killer (NK) cells. 4 The results, published ...

They are called “Natural Killer” (NK) cells for a reason. These cytotoxic lymphocytes, a part of innate immunity, are the body’s cellular “boots on the ground,” capable of swiftly and ferociously ...
