Natural killer (NK) cells are pivotal in the innate immune response against cancer and viral infections, with their presence in tumors correlating to better patient outcomes in various cancers.
A study published in Cell Research advances a central idea in stem cell biology by identifying a checkpoint that controls the identity of many different types of stem cells across developmental stages ...
Checkpoint inhibitors are antibody-based cancer therapies that unlock the immune system’s natural ability to fight cancer. These treatments work by blocking special proteins called immune checkpoints, ...
When many cancers advance, spread and reoccur, checkpoint inhibitors can help keep difficult tumors at bay. These antibody-based immunotherapies can restore the body’s ability to recognize and ...
Researchers have identified a shared protein checkpoint, GSK3α, that maintains stem cell identity across multiple types, potentially streamlining lab cultivation for therapies. In a separate advance, ...

A study published in Cell Research advances a central idea in stem cell biology by identifying a checkpoint that controls the identity of many different types of stem cells across developmental stages ...
Immune checkpoint inhibitors are cancer therapeutics that have shown remarkable success in extending lives in many cancers, including melanoma, MSI-high cancers, and other cancers. However, these ...
Red indicates mouse embryonic stem cells and green indicates mouse epiblast stem cells. The two cell types were co-cultured under GSK3α inhibition and maintained their distinct identities. A study ...
