Exploring the Impact of Gut Bacteria on Immune Health
Kazuki Nagashima, a senior research scientist at Stanford University, has been awarded this year’s NOSTER & Science Microbiome Prize for pioneering research that elucidates how gut bacteria affect T cells. His innovative approach identifies specific bacterium-T cell interactions, crucial for managing diseases influenced by
T-cells In Skin Can Kill Melanoma Cells And Prolong Survival
Melanoma patients with vitiligo have a better outcome because the T-cells in the skin found in vitiligo provide immunity against the cancer cells in melanoma.

Nagashima’s research debunked prior assumptions by revealing that certain T cells, termed “blockbuster” T cells, can engage with multiple bacterial strains within the gut. This discovery opens new avenues for therapeutic interventions aimed at modulating immune responses beneficially.“This finding offers a promising therapeutic approach to manipulate gut immune reactions,” Nagashima emphasized upon receiving the prestigious award. His work underscores the potential to harness gut microbiota dynamics for treating a spectrum of diseases, marking a pivotal step forward in microbiome research.
The NOSTER & Science Microbiome Prize recognizes young investigators advancing the field of microbiota research, highlighting innovations with profound implications for therapeutic development.
CAR T-Cell Therapy - Novel Form of Immunotherapy
CAR T-cell therapy is a type of gene therapy where the patient’s T-lymphocytes are genetically altered to target cancer cells within the patient’s body.

Role of Unconventional T Cells in Severe COVID-19 Patients
Changes in unconventional T cells can predict the disease outcome in severe COVID-19 patients. These changes can be observed by monitoring the activity of these cells in the blood of patients.
