New research unlocks key to long-lasting immune response in cancer and chronic diseases
Prolonged illnesses like cancer and chronic infections often leave the immune system in a state of exhaustion, where its frontline defenders — T cells — lose their ability to function effectively. Researchers have identified a rare type of immune cells, called stem-like T cells, that holds the key to maintaining powerful, long-term immune responses.
