Some studies suggest that the immunoreceptor NKG2D expression on CD8+ T cells is down-regulated and this reduction may be involved in immune evasion in cancer patients. The present study was designed ...

T cells genetically engineered to express a lab-designed chimeric-antigen receptor, or CAR, offer many patients with blood cancer a new treatment option. But while these T cells may have lifesaving ...

Flow cytometry is a way to look closely at the features of cells or particles. A sample of blood or tissue goes into a machine called a cytometer. In less than a minute, a computer can analyze ...

Around the same time, Mack Fulwyler, an engineer working at Los Alamos National Laboratory, needed to separate particles, so he drew on existing techniques to create droplets to separate cells from a ...

Flow cytometry is a rapid method of cell counting and sorting, in some cases incorporating several characterization techniques such as mass spectrometry and fluorescence microscopy that can allow ...
