Simulating Base Editing To Treat T-Cell Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia

<p>You certainly know how horrifying of a disease cancer is, right? Besides the damage it causes to the body, other factors that make cancer so terrifying are&nbsp;<strong>the lack of a cure and the unwated effects of most conventional treatments.</strong></p> <p>However, a more secure and effective solution has been developed:&nbsp;<strong>CAR-T cells.</strong>&nbsp;T-cells are one class of immune cells, responsible for recognizing antigens in our body &mdash; particles, viruses, bacteria &mdash; and induce their destruction. We can genetically modify these cells to make them produce chimeric antigen receptors (CARs), proteins that make them identify cancer cells.</p> <p><a href="https://medium.com/@pedromoraesf/simulating-base-editing-to-treat-t-cell-acute-lymphoblastic-leukemia-c845a8cfbc2e"><strong>Click Here</strong></a></p>
