Natural Killer (NK) cells are vital immune defenders that target and destroy cancer cells. However, in aging and cancer patients, NK cells often become "senescent"—losing their effectiveness due to ...
As part of a study published in January, 37 people who had been through various failed treatments for blood cancer received infusions of genetically enhanced immune cells that researchers hoped would ...
Scientists have developed a strategy to boost the cancer-fighting power of natural killer (NK) cells, part of the immune system's first line of defense. NK cells can detect and destroy cancer cells, ...
Scientists at McGill University have found a way to supercharge the immune system’s natural killer (NK) cells, helping them break through the defenses tumors use to stay alive. By temporarily blocking ...
The concept of trained immunity has redefined innate immune responses as adaptable, durable, and context dependent. Natural killer (NK) cells, traditionally ...
One of the newest weapons that scientists have developed against cancer is a type of engineered immune cell known as CAR-NK (natural killer) cells. Similar to CAR-T cells, these cells can be ...

Cancer immunotherapy has been transformed by engineered T cells, but those bespoke treatments are slow, expensive, and out of reach for many patients who need help quickly. A new way to generate vast ...
CAMBRIDGE, MA -- One of the newest weapons that scientists have developed against cancer is a type of engineered immune cell known as CAR-NK (natural killer) cells. Similar to CAR-T cells, these cells ...
Natural killer cells are supposed to be the immune system’s first responders against cancer. They don’t need to be trained on a specific target the way T cells do. They recognize stressed or abnormal ...
