Natural killer (NK) cells play a crucial role in the immune system and can recognize and kill cancer cells. Research in this area is focused on strategies for enhancing NK cell activity in tumor immunotherapy. These strategies include using monoclonal and multi-specific antibodies, as well as immune modulator molecules like cytokines, to redirect and stimulate …Read More >

Passive Heymann nephritis, induced by intravenous injection of anti-Fx1A in susceptible rat strains, is a complement-dependent model of glomerular disease that resembles membranous nephropathy in humans.  At IMMUNOLOGY2024, WuXi AppTec presented a poster demonstrating that rapamycin exerts a protective effect against anti-Fx1A-induced passive Heymann nephritis by reducing proteinuria.  The authors show that this antiproteinuric effect …Read More >

NK cells are effector innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) that do not require antigen-specific priming. NK cells are not only killer cells that help to suppress tumors, but also are involved in the generation and maintenance of adaptive immune responses.  The process of antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) makes use of innate immune cells which provide antitumor …Read More >
