Remote-Controlled Signal Activates T Cells for Cancer Immunotherapy

Researchers at Georgia Tech have developed a technique to remotely activate genetically-modified T cells to attack cancer. The method employs a near-infrared laser that heats gold nanorods present in the tumor, causing local heating. This heat activates the T cells, making them more aggressive in killing cancer cells.

Immunotherapies, such as T ce (Read more...)
