The shared CD25 activation mechanism on regulatory and effector T cells has been a big challenge when designing immunotherapy drugs. Now, researchers have developed a new antibody that can target CD25 specifically on regulatory T cells while leaving effector T cells intact.

In this installment of Teach Me in 10, we're joined by Matt Cooper, co-founder and chief scientific officer at Wugen, Inc. He is also assistant professor of medicine at Washington University. Matt discusses what T cells are and how they can be engineered to recognize cancer cells.

In this episode, the TN team rounds up some of the best and weirdest science from the last month. Hear how elephants and naked mole rats fight cancer, how immunotherapy is getting a microbial boost from poop transplants and why researchers think our sleep patterns might be affected by the phases of the moon.

Tumor associated macrophages (TAMs) can facilitate the proliferation of tumor cells and are able to suppress anti-tumor immune responses within the tumor microenvironment, making them a highly attractive target for the development of innovative cancer immunotherapies.

This listicle details the top 10 most-read non-COVID-19 cancer research news stories from the field this year, published on Technology Networks.

Checkpoint inhibitors are a type of immunotherapy. They block proteins that stop the immune system from attacking the cancer cells. Find out how these work and when you might have them as a treatment for cancer.

In cancer, rapidly emerging evidence suggests that the microbiome influences disease progression in a myriad of direct and indirect ways. In this listicle, we look at recent research developments directed towards exploring the emerging “oncomicrobiome”.

The use of immune molecules called antibodies in neuroscience research has revolutionized research. Download this infographic to discover how antibodies are used in neuroscience and how improvements in antibody usage can help forge a robust, reproducible future for the field.

In this episode, the team explore cancer immunotherapy, a revolutionary set of treatments that has fundamentally changed cancer care.
