T cells, also called T lymphocytes, are an integral component of the adaptive immune system which seek out and eliminate foreign particles. Functions of T cells include killing infected host cells, activating other immune cells, producing and releasing immune messengers called cytokines into the body, and regulating the immune response. When T cell functionality is hindered by disease, genetics, or environment, the immune system could be at severe risk.
In this webinar, Dr. Luke O'Neill will discuss an overview of immunology and immunometabolism in infectious disease. The past 10 years or so has seen a major resurgence of interest in im...
Mouse models have been essential for establishing the role of the T cells in anti-tumor responses, but they have limited utility in translational studies for the testing of candidate therape...
Immune escape mechanisms such as the induction/recruitment of immunosuppressive cells and the increased expression of various immunosuppressive molecules including PD-1/PD-1 ligands are esse...
In line with the role of T cells as critical mediators of the adaptive immune response, recombinational and junctional diversity of the T cell receptor makes each T cell almost entirely uniq...
Brain malignancies can either originate from within the CNS (gliomas) or invade from other locations in the body (metastases). A highly immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME) influen...
