Study of TGF-β1 in Fibrosis Progression: An Exploration of an Antibody Targeting Binding Proteins Research Background Fibrosis is a leading cause of poor prognosis in numerous diseases, such as chronic kidney disease, non-alcoholic steatohepatitis, and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis. Despite the substantial medical need, directly targeting fibrosis ...

Review on the Study of IL-12 Promoting Human Follicular Regulatory T Cell Differentiation Research Background Follicular helper T cells (Tfh) play a crucial regulatory role in B cell responses to pathogens and vaccines. When not properly controlled, Tfh cells can lead to the production of antibodies against self-antigens or allergens. Follicular re...
