These findings suggest that KIR2DS2-positive (KIR2DS2+) natural killer (NK) cells could be an attractive therapeutic target for in vivo strategies, although enhanced effector function is lost during ...

Natural killer (NK) cells are pivotal in the innate immune response against cancer and viral infections, with their presence in tumors correlating to better patient outcomes in various cancers.

Cancer immunotherapy has been transformed by engineered T cells, but those bespoke treatments are slow, expensive, and out of reach for many patients who need help quickly. A new way to generate vast ...

Activated T cells that carry a certain marker protein on their surface are controlled by natural killer (NK) cells, another cell type of the immune system. In this way, the body presumably curbs ...

Publication of detailed analysis on INKmune biology compared to cytokine stimulated cells demonstrates important anti-tumor memory like NK cell characteristics The study demonstrates that memory-like ...

Fasting for 24 hours twice a week boosts the cancer-fighting abilities of specific immune cells called natural killer cells, according to a new study. The findings open up a number of options for ...

MIT and Harvard scientists have designed an advanced type of immune cell called a CAR-NK cell that can destroy cancer while avoiding attack from the body’s own immune defenses. This innovation could ...
