Lymph nodes are key control centers in the immune system and play an important role in defending the body against infections ...

The current path to CAR-T cell therapy is, by any measure, a logistical ordeal. A patient’s immune cells must be drawn out of ...

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 ...

Microtubules, the dynamic filaments that form the cell's internal scaffolding, have long been viewed as mere passive structural supports. But a new study reveals they play a far more active signaling ...

Cells rely on tiny molecules called microRNAs to tune which genes are active and when. Cells must carefully control the ...

Why does cancer sometimes recur after chemotherapy? Why do some bacteria survive antibiotic treatment? In many cases, the answer appears to lie not in genetic differences, but in biological noise - ...

Eveo Cell Therapy Platform enables automated, multi-parallel intensified production of autologous cell therapies Compact ...

It is possible to reduce the biological noise to a desired level. Without any control mechanism, external stimuli cause the population-level average of cellular outputs to shift. Existing control ...

Among people with sickle cell disease—an inherited blood disorder—acute chest syndrome (ACS) is the leading cause of death. The condition is the result of red blood cells becoming stiff, sticky, and ...
