Medically reviewed by Steffini Stalos, DO CD4 T helper cells are a type of white blood cell called a lymphocyte that serves ...

T-cell activation involves two phases, enabling a more precise immune response. This insight may boost cancer immunotherapy ...

The research groups led by Wolfgang Kastenmüller and Georg Gasteiger employed innovative microscopy techniques to observe how ...

CD4 + conventional T (Tconv) cells, or helper T cells, inspect the peptides presented by dendritic cells. If the peptides are foreign antigens, the T cells expand in numbers and transform into an ...

NEW YORK – In cell and gene therapies, the genetic machinery is key to producing the proteins missing or dysregulated in a disease, but whether the therapeutic cassette reaches target cells and how ...

A team from the Max Planck Research Group for Systems Immunology at the University of Würzburg has identified a previously ...

All of the patients had CD4+ helper T cells that recognized the virus’s spike protein, and 70 percent of them had CD8+ killer ...

CD4+ conventional T (Tconv) cells, or helper T cells, inspect the peptides presented by dendritic cells. If the peptides are foreign antigens, the T cells expand in numbers and transform into an ...

He studies how tumor-recognizing T cells — a type of immune cell — respond to these solid tumors, and how to improve those responses to help patients. One research focus is on CD4, or "helper" T cells ...

"It's like a doppelganger population of T cells. The CD4 helper cells that could induce disease by attacking the self share an equivalent, matched population of these peacekeeper Treg cells ...
