Cancer metastasis, the spread of cancer to organs, is a major cause of cancer-related deaths. Once cancer spreads to multiple organs, conventional treatments like surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy ...

A novel cell therapy approach using cord blood-derived natural killer (NK) cells pre-complexed with AFM13, or acimtamig, a CD30/CD16A bispecific antibody, was safe and generated strong response rates ...

A team of researchers from the Hospital del Mar Research Institute, the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona and the Pompeu Fabra University has developed a new tool that allows modifying these NK cells ...

The genetic modification of the Natural Killer (NK) cells, lymphocytes forming part of the body’s immune system, would make it possible to retain their capacity of eliminating tumour cells in solid ...

Cancer cells use sophisticated strategies to suppress the immune system and spread in the body. For instance, immune cells like natural killer (NK) cells and cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs ...

Among other functions, the NK cells (natural killers, a type of lymphocyte forming part of the immune system) have the capacity to detect and eliminate cancer cells. But in some cases they cannot ...

Following the discovery of inhibitory KIR and the understanding that they play a role in preventing NK cell killing of self MHC I-expressing tumor cells, investigators began to research the ...

Intermittent fasting in mice enhances natural killer cells’ cancer-fighting abilities ... Furthermore, mice on this diet for three weeks had smaller tumor volumes and reduced metastases compared to ...

Current research suggests aspirin may have another pharmacological benefit — the prevention of cancer progression. Previous studies have shown that people taking low-dose aspirin had lower chances of ...

Natural killer (NK ... and reduced tumour growth and metastasis. This Review provides an overview of the main targetable surface proteins in prostate cancer, defined as the surfaceome, discussing ...
