New technology harnesses a natural feature of therapeutic antibodies to attack blood cancer cells

Researchers at the University of Southampton and biopharma company UCB have found a way to enhance the natural ability of therapeutic antibodies to attack blood cancer cells using part of the human immune system known as the complement cascade, opening the way for a potential new class of treatments.

Research shows how dendrimers avoid detection by the immune system

Tiny synthetic particles known as dendrimers have been shown to avoid detection by our immune system and so could be used to develop a new system to deliver drugs into the body without triggering a reaction.
