Microparticle injections containing an immunomodulator protein inhibited bone loss and promoted repair in a mouse model of periodontal disease.

Cowpea mosaic virus stimulated the immune system to treat and prevent metastatic cancers in mice.

A new mouse study suggests that folinic acid treatment could help the immune system penetrate pancreatic cancer’s protective shell.

Natural killer cells can sometimes attack beneficial CAR T cell immunotherapies. Now, researchers have discovered why and a potential way to stop them.

An inhibitory receptor binds a checkpoint protein to thwart T cell proliferation and function.

Since their discovery in the 1890s, viruses have intrigued scientists as potential cancer-killing agents.

A modular CAR T cell could make cancer therapy safer and more effective.

Genetically modified stem cells show promise in a targeted approach to taming inflammation in autoimmune diseases.
