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 ...

On the one hand, circadian rhythm disorder contributes to tumor growth and metastasis by influencing the dysregulation of gene expression affecting the tumor itself. On the other hand, circadian ...

They do this by destroying cells in the body that have been taken over by viruses or become cancerous. A third type of lymphocyte, known as a natural killer or NK cell, comes from the same place ...
