New study could prevent T cell exhaustion in the immune system’s fight against cancer

Struggling against a tumor is not a sprint. It is a marathon. The race of cancer-fighting T cells is at times simply very long, and the T cells give up fighting. This phenomenon is referred to as T cell exhaustion by researchers.
