Australian researchers have found that the TAK1 gene helps cancer cells survive immune system attacks, uncovering a mechanism that might limit the effectiveness of immunotherapy treatments. Cancer immunotherapies can work thoroughly, but in some cases they’re inadequate as a result of the survival processes built into tumors that help them resist immune system attacks. Researchers […]

A breakthrough in biomedical research guarantees latest insights into the event of immunotherapies and disease modeling. Scientists on the University of Texas Health Science Center in San Antonio have developed a humanized mouse model with a human immune system and human-like gut microbiome that’s able to eliciting specific antibody responses. The scientists were led by […]

Immunotherapy is one in every of the pillars within the fight against cancer and goals to enable the body’s own immune system to fight a tumor. A recent study now shows that removing certain enzymes that regulate epigenetic processes from the so-called dendritic cells of the immune system influences their development and thus improves anti-tumor […]

Researchers on the VIB-KU Leuven Center for Cancer Biology have identified a possible goal for cancer immunotherapy. The team, led by Professor Massimiliano Mazzone, found that the gene is some of the upregulated metabolic genes in immunotherapy-resistant tumors. Inhibiting this gene by pharmacological or genetic interventions led to raised T cell Infiltration, increasing the effectiveness […]

About one in five cancer patients profit from immunotherapy – a treatment that uses the immune system to fight cancer. Such an approach to fighting cancer has achieved significant success in lung cancer and other diseases Melanoma, amongst others. Researchers are optimistic about its potential and are exploring strategies to enhance immunotherapy for cancers that […]
