New research findings from IGP
-
Immune cells in tumours can predict disease progression and therapy response
2023-01-31
Researchers at IGP have identified a combination of two types of immune cells that characterise certain cancer forms. This combination can be used to provide disease prognosis and predict treatment response to immunotherapy. The findings are presented in a new study in the journal eBioMedicine.

Newly discovered cell type interplays with immune cells in vascular disease
2023-01-23
Researchers at IGP have discovered a new cell subtype in the lymphatic vessels that interacts with immune cells in lymphatic malformations. This newly discovered interplay between the immune system and the lymphatic system could be used to treat diseases with lymphatic malformations.

The Yes protein controls leakage from blood vessel to surrounding tissues
2022-12-19
Researchers at IGP have identified a protein involved in regulating leakage from blood vessel. Its role in controlling cell–cell contacts, challenges prior knowledge and opens up new avenues for future therapeutic development in diseases involving vessel leakage and tissue swelling.
