In this interview, News-Medical talks to Dr. Shuang Zhou about cytokine-base cancer immunotherapy, the current state of the field, and future prospects. Cytokines are molecular messengers released by ...

Cytokines are small proteins that enable cells to communicate with each other, particularly to modulate the immune system—an increasingly popular target in drug development for immunology, virology, ...

Cytokines are a large group of bioactive small molecule proteins synthesized and secreted by immune and non-immune cells. There are various types of cytokines that belong to different families and ...

A recent review examined natural killer–based therapies, a type of immunotherapy that holds promise for treating leukemia with less toxicity than currently available therapies. Although chemotherapy ...

Cytokines are secreted proteins critical for immune regulation, cell signaling, and tissue homeostasis. These cells are increasingly recognized as key tools in biomedical research, particularly in ...

Structural equivalence is demonstrated through the comparison of a synthetic multinuclear metal complex (left) versus the designer enzyme in this report (right). A collaborative research team led by ...

A collaborative research team has successfully developed designer enzymes that exhibit both intrinsic and extrinsic functions by transplanting a synthetic trinuclear zinc center into a human cytokine.
