In tests with mice, a protein derived from the virus boosted the immune system's ability to kill cancer cells.

Recent research points to the potential utility of a familiar sounding foe–herpes virus–in the fight against cancer.

B lymphocytes exhibit dual roles in tumorigenesis, acting as both allies and adversaries in the tumor microenvironment (TME).

A team identified herpes virus saimiri, which infects the T cells of squirrel monkeys, as a source of proteins that activate pathways in T cells that are needed to promote T cell survival.

and the T cell is a really important immune cell, so it’s exciting that we’ve been able to connect this cell activation pathway that people think about a lot in T cells with this fundamental ...
