Blocking regulatory T cells to restore immune function

Prosjektet tar sikte på å undersøke hvordan regulatoriske T celler hemmer T hjelperceller og T dreperceller, hvordan de demper immunsystemet og bidrar til å unngå autoimmunitet samt hvordan de kan utnyttes av kreftsvulster til å omgå anti-tumor immunitet. Vi utvikler metoder for å skru av og på r...
