As we get older, everything in our bodies age, even our cells. But brain cells are different. Most neurons last a lifetime, and the adult brain even contains several areas that can make new neurons ...

Efficient T-cell engineering is crucial for the success of CAR T-cell therapy research, but it requires multiple labor-intensive steps, including T-cell isolation, activation, and transduction.

A new CAR T therapy design uses the approved drug venetoclax to temporarily disengage engineered immune cells from tumors.

Research by a Stanford University team of scientists has shed new light on how and why neural stem cells (NSCs), the cells behind the generation of new neurons in the adult brain, become less active ...

Doctors also sometimes replenish blood cells in cancer patients using healthy blood stem cells drawn from the patients themselves, although these stem cells may be harder to activate and expand if ...
