- Improve cancer immunotherapies that are based on adoptive T cell transfer/ improves T-cell therapies
This invention demonstrates that let-7 miRNA regulates T cell responses and offers a strategy in developing next-generation immunotherapies by preserving the multipotency of effector cells rather than enhancing the efficacy of differentiation.
Prof. Leonid Pobezinsky is a professor in the Department of Veterinary and Animal Sciences at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. His research interests lie in the molecular mechanisms that control differentiation and transformation programs within an organism’s immune system.
