Summary
Scientists at Memorial Sloan Kettering have genetically engineered immune cells to find and kill cells that contribute to diseases caused by senescence, a tissue-damaging inflammatory process. Studies in mice show that these engineered cells can kill their targets without causing undue toxicity.
Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cells have transformed the treatment of refractory blood cancers. These genetically engineered immune cells seek out and destroy cancer cells with precision.
