Cowpea Virus Found to Trigger Immune Response Against Cancer Cells
A study published in Cell Biomaterials has discovered that the cowpea mosaic virus (CPMV), a plant virus typically infecting black-eyed peas, can trigger an immune response against cancer cells. Researchers found that CPMV activates innate immune cells and establishes systemic, long-lasting anti-tumor memory, making it a promising low-cost and potent cancer immunotherapy. Unlike other plant … Read more
