Welcome to the world of T cells!<\/p>\n
The immune system consists of \u00a0innate and \u00a0adaptive immune cells.\u00a0The adaptive immune system is important for maintaining long-term immune responses to pathogens and comprise of T cells and B cells.<\/p>\n
T cells or T lymphocytes are essential for immunity in humans. Lack of T cells or specific T cell lineage determining factors can cause life threatening complications such as the “bubble boy disease”, IPEX syndrome etc.<\/p>\n
In addition to maintaining immune homeostasis, T cells possess fabulous therapeutic potential for\u00a0the treatment of refractory cancers, autoimmunity and viral diseases. T cell engineering and targeting T cell receptors has resulted in paradigm shifting therapeutic strategies for both liquid and solid tumours.<\/p>\n
We hope our blog will provide an upto date information on what’s happening in the world of T cell biology and therapy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
