Finally weaned baby off the binky! I was afraid that going cold turkey may be difficult but it actually worked well. Finally I can embrace my 8 hour straight sleep. #nicubaby

LTbR is the top regulator for T cell effector functions. It makes T cells resistant to exhaustion. It can improve the antigen-specific responses of CAR-T and gd T cell therapy. 👀

Similar to biologics, patients can develop anti-CAR-T immunity, which prevents the follow-up administration of the same CAR-T cells.

Why both CD4 and CD8 T cells are needed for this application..?
