Researchers from VIB, VUB, and an international network of collaborators have created the most comprehensive single-cell ...

Leuven, 11 March 2025 – Solid tumors often provide a challenging environment for the T cells of our immune system. By reprogramming the metabolism of T cells, scientists at the VIB-KU Leuven Center ...

Researchers at Oregon Health & Science University have uncovered a key reason why immunotherapy has largely failed in pancreatic cancer—and identified a promising strategy to overcome that resistance.

In recent years, we have come to appreciate that loss or dysfunction of insulin-producing islet beta cells underlies virtually all major forms of diabetes mellitus. In type 1 diabetes, beta cells ...

Solid tumors often provide a challenging environment for the T cells of our immune system. By reprogramming the metabolism of T cells, scientists at the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Cancer Biology and ...

In order to reprogram readily available cells into specific immune cells that fight various diseases, one must know the “recipe” for the transformation. Researchers at Lund University have now created ...

Twelve people whose stomach or colon cancers had defeated every available treatment were infused with their own immune cells, ...

EPFL researchers have uncovered how transcription factor dosage reshapes cell identity, showing that even small differences in dose can steer cells toward completely different fates. Their findings ...

A new paper in the journal Nature reveals an astonishing—and frankly unsettling—feature of some cancer cells: the ability to physically inject mitochondria into their neighboring cells. These ...

UH engineers helped develop an mRNA-based strategy that boosts cancer-fighting T cells and, in mouse studies, helped ...
