Antibody-ligand traps unleash potent immune responses by binding and blocking proteins that typically enhance cancer progression and spread, such as TGFβ. In this webinar from The Scientist, LuZhe Sun will describe how he uses these traps to control the cell cycle in rapidly dividing cancer cells, shrinking tumors in the process.
