Immunotherapy has transformed cancer treatment, but persistent challenges, such as T cell exhaustion, limited persistence, and variability in response, continue to impact therapeutic success...
BACKGROUND . Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) are a heterogeneous group of myeloid neoplasms with variable clinical outcomes and an increased risk of progression to Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AM...
Aging is associated with progressive white matter degeneration, which impairs brain structure and function. Defects in myelinating glial cells, combined with chronic neuroinflammation, contr...
This webinar explains how CAR-T cells transfected using Solupore® technology from Avectas and sorted using the CGX10 Cell Isolation System from Sony Biotechnology outperform unsorted cel...
Engineered immune cell therapies offer the promise of more tailored interventions than traditional systemic checkpoint blockades, but so far remain ineffective across the majority of clinica...
CAR-T Therapy continues to evolve rapidly, mRNA encoding CAR constructs directly to T cells in the bloodstream, potentially enabling CAR T cell production in the body without the need to iso...

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) accounts for more deaths than colon, breast, and prostate cancers combined. Of patients with NSCLC, 20% initially present with stage I or II disease, for w...
Ivonescimab is a that simultaneously targets programmed cell death protein 1 (PD-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), two key molecules in the tumour microenvironment. It's...
While hundreds of different lipids have been identified in human blood, many of them remain functionally uncharacterized, including a class of lipids called long-chain acylcarnitines (LCACs)...
Immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) targeting T cells has enhanced clinical outcomes in patients with renal and bladder cancers; however, response rates remain limited, particularly in cases of...
The HIV-1 Nef accessory factor promotes viral replication and immune escape of HIV-infected cells, making it an attractive drug target. Our team previously identified small molecules that bi...
Clinical effectiveness of immune therapies of solid tumors requires a) the induction or expansion of T cells able of recognizing multiple variants of cancer cells present in each cancer pati...
Expression of co-inhibitory receptors or “checkpoint” molecules, such as CTLA-4 and PD-1, on effector T cells is a key mechanism for ensuring immune homeostasis. Dysregulated exp...
High resolution surveys of the tumor microenvironment (TME) are needed to obtain a holistic portrait of the genetic, epigenetic, and cellular factors contributing to cancer progression. To t...
