  • T cells play a crucial role in fighting cancer something well appreciated by Lionel Apetoh who showed that they were essential for the efficacy of chemotherapies during his PhD. Since then, he's been interested in trying to improve the efficacy of these vital cells.
    However, increasing the efficacy of these cells against cancers comes with challenges; if they become too aggressive they could damage the body. So now Lionel's lab is working to fine tune their responses.

    I recently beat lymphoma, and they used a similar method by modifying my immune cells to target abnormal b cells that possess excess CD20 antibodies.

    “Interleukin 9, also known as IL-9, is a pleiotropic cytokine (cell signalling molecule) belonging to the group of interleukins.”
    “Th9 cells are regarded as the major CD4+ (T helper cells) that produce IL-9.”
