Seeking A Solution: Probiotic-Guided CAR T Cells For Solid Tumors
Beyond yogurt ads and health supplements, probiotics could revitalize cell-based cancer immunotherapies such as CAR T therapy. Surprisingly, a paper published in Science demonstrates show how these live microorganisms can guide supercharged T cells into the solid tumor environment—a feat that current …
