Immune cells use previously unknown pathway to eliminate acute myeloid leukemia
Researchers at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center have discovered a new way in which T cells attack acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cells, which may help explain why AML is particularly sensitive to immune-based treatments and could guide the development of future can

New research clears the way to healing lung diseases
