T-cell
* micro-bio-socio-logic
compels this lit-munization against what’s shown to debilitate hope, destabilize reason & a justifiable  carriage in the world * moments like this  mark the opportunity to promote & pursue what elevates us, creating possibilities of vistas as expansive as we can envision * we should vaccinate our viscous viewpoints against persuaders who seek to  subjugate our souls to serve them;  in such a servility, we’d no longer be able to perceive who or what we live & are fighting for * let this serve to signal our DNA...  DO NOT ALLOW on a cellular level  this antibody, to any & everybody who'd succumb to the insinuation said to attack even those 'living well' within our nation: * the T-cell * ...about which i shall now desist. ( lest i become infected  & even more pissed ) * 7/18 - 3/25 - lebuc - T-cell *yeah, that one...

"Two researchers in the US and Australia have discovered important mechanisms that prevent B cells from attacking the body’s own tissues in autoimmune diseases like arthritis, lupus, and multiple sclerosis—and in the process have won a prestigious prize.
Normally, the body’s immune system protects us from viruses, bacteria, and foreign substances. However, in autoimmune diseases, the immune system starts attacking tissues in the body instead.
Researchers had long tried to discover the cause of autoimmune diseases. But, Christopher Goodnow and David Nemazee, independently of each other, adopted a new approach.
They asked why we do not all develop these diseases. Their focus was on B cells which, together with white blood cells and T cells, are the building blocks of our complex immune system.
“They have given us a new and detailed understanding of the mechanisms that normally prevent faulty B cells from attacking tissues in the body, explaining why most of us are not affected by autoimmune diseases,” says Olle Kämpe, member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences and chair of the Crafoord Prize committee that awarded the pair 6 million Swedish kronor ($600,000).
Neutralize B cells
In recent years, physicians have started to experiment by using existing drugs to neutralize B cells for patients with severe autoimmune diseases, including lupus, rheumatoid arthritis, and multiple sclerosis, which has proven to be very effective at improving their quality of life.
Thanks to this year’s Crafoord Prize Laureates, we have gained fundamental new knowledge about what is happening in the immune system during autoimmune disease attacks.
“This also paves the way for development of new forms of therapies that eventually can cure these diseases—or might prevent them in the future,” said one professor of clinical immunology at the Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences...

More details from the video, since the article glosses over the particulars:
"The laureates discovered what is now called B cell tolerance.
When B cells develop in the bone marrow, not all of them are perfect. To remove the faulty ones, a mechanism starts, in which defective cells are programmed to destroy themself through apoptosis.
The laureates discovered two new mechanisms that are used if some of the bad cells are left. Re-editing, where the immune system alters the combination of receptors, and anergy, that silences B cells with self-reactive receptors.
The laureates were able to demonstrate that these mechanisms sometimes fail. This means that faulty B cells can cause an attack on the body's own tissues – leading to autoimmune diseases.
Thanks to the laureate’s discoveries, doctors like Anders Bengtsson soon felt able to start treating patients with lupus, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, and many other autoimmune diseases, with medicines that eradicated B cells.
Anders Bengtsson: "I'm very happy that B cells has gotten so much attention because of the laureates. I have seen my patients getting so much better and getting a better life."
Autoimmune patient: "Today, I feel very good. I really have hope in the research that it will revolutionise things and perhaps even cure it all. That’s what I want, hope for, and believe in.""

@teidar dropped this in our Discord server this morning, and it reminded me of something from my middle school years.
Tumblr media
Back in the '70s, we had an assembly at my school to listen to a presentation by some shill from The Phone Company about telephone technology and the Dazzling Amazing Future of Telecommunications.
(Like I said, it was the '70s.)
It included a pretty accurate version of compact portable phone technology.
"You'll never be out of touch! People will always be able tp reach you, wherever you are! You could be surfing on the beach at Maui, and your boss could call you to talk about work!"
He seemed utterly baffled when someone asked, "what if you don't want people to call you? Who wants their boss to call them on vacation?"
How could anyone not want this glorious future utopia of constant communication?
I will note that his version of Amazing Future Phones were strapped to your wrist at all times. Someone asked, "couldn't you just take your phone off and leave it in your hotel room?" and he answered, "well, no, you couldn't."
I suspect that whoever wrote up his presentation never really thought about these questions, but I've never forgotten that at least one guy at The Phone Company literally wanted to chain these fucking things to your wrist.

He's brought X/ie L/ian's hand with him inadvertently when he brought an arm up to sneeze into, and X/ie L/ian is staring at him wide eyed in a way that says that's doing something for him. "eh-eh-- hhheh!! g'tcHiew!! hHHIESSHHUHh!! Oh my god!" X/ie L/ian starts laughing, raucous and almost a cough, and H/ua C/heng can't help but follow along.  The timing! "

Researchers have developed an innovative dual-receptor T-cell therapy that promises safer and more effective cancer treatments. This study, published in Cell, demonstrates that engineering T-cells to express both a Chimeric Antigen Receptor (CAR) and a T-cell Receptor (TCR) can improve their ability to distinguish between cancerous and healthy tissues—addressing a major challenge in current immunotherapy. Treatments involving the use of the body's immune system to fight cancer have led to significant improvements in patient survival in recent years, particularly using a method called CAR T-cell therapy. This treatment involves extracting a patient's own T-cells and modifying them in a lab to express a special receptor called a Chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) that recognizes a tumor protein. These are then reinfused back into the patient, where they can find and destroy cancer cells.

Wait omg I never did share my Cytotoxic T cell character
They hunt down cancerous or infected cells (example below) to protect the cell society they live in, aka a human’s body. They were a subject of my drawings the most when I had a cellular biology course, surprise surprise

Rottmnt x Cells at Work!
I have no clue why this idea popped into my head but it seems like such a fun crossover and I think it's fun that they would all be a different type of immune cell!

Random WBC Crew NSFW Headcanons (+ Killer T)
Tumblr media
MINORS DO NOT INTERACT!!
Tumblr media
U-1146
service top/top energy- tell him what you want and hes all hands on deck
knows that he has a big d but he doesn't really brag about it (cough cough 2048)
doesn't really jack off too much, low sex drive unfortunately
but when y'all do have sex he does not disappoint.
number one rule of 1146: never underestimate a neutrophil's oral skills cause LORD- (and I speak for all the neutrophils here 🙌)
will have you crying from his tongue swirling around your entrance transitioning to flicking your clit: he has all kinds of tricks up his sleeve
tell him how good he makes you feel plz and thank you he will return the favor..
as for p in v...
he's a tease at the start, sliding the tip of his cock against your wet slit before he enters STAWP-
he's barely vocal but you can hear some grunts and his hot labored breathing
U-4989
it's always a ride when it comes to 4989
service top/leaning bottom
first time with him was interesting cause he let you take the lead
yes, he was vocal lemme tell ya lol, his voice becomes a little shaky whilst praising and moaning your name as you ride him, you can say he's enjoying it too much but you cant help but to find it hot
"o-oh god, yeah,-ngh! fu-uck you're so good~ don't-don't stop~"
PLEASE thread your fingers through his fluffy hair while he eats you out
overstim king, cums the most out of the crew, the messier the better, he will have you sore but begging for another high surprisingly
aftercare=cuddles and kisses
U-2626
switch like a switchblade
he loves to see your reactions during the act, from your puffy red cheeks while sucking his dick to your fucked out face when his dick hits a new angle inside of you, noises of pleasure loudly slurring out of you
sure you may not see his reaction alot but he will show that fangy smile or reply with some lewd comment
average dick energy (a little girthy) but he sure knows how to use it
sex being the only chance too sweep his bangs over to finally see what his eyes are like..but you would have to work real hard for that right in 2626's terms
a sucker for leaving bites on your neck/neck kisses
U-2048
Mans is down for anything from quickies to threesomes he's such a slut
eyefucking king ™️ (don't ask why look at his eyes)
sends you to poundtown lmaooo
very much into receiving head but he ain't gonna complain about giving you head as well (just ask in the most smuttiest way possible :) )
ofc the most cockiest of all neutrophils has to have the filthiest mouth for dirty talk in the bedroom
"such a good fucking whore for me, aren't ya baby? I hardly even touched you and you're literally soaked~" he whisper in your ear with that stupidly smooth voice he has, pressing himself against you..in public. "Babe we are in the artery right now..save it for when we get somewhere private."
slight knifeplay kink
fond of any position that involves eye contact ughhhhhhhhhhhh
Killer T Cell
the most aggressive top you've ever seen
In the sheets he is a bully, pulling your hair, smacking your ass, dominating you the second you two hit the mattress
is actually very gentle the first time then after the a few more time he starts showing his rough side
he let you top ONCE and he made you swear to never tell anyone, (he was a total brat during the whole thing but ended up secretly liking it in the end)
goes a little overboard with love marks sometimes drawing a little blood which once he saw it he was bowing his head a million times apologizing
no escape from the many holds/positions with those big muscles 😫
call him daddy? it's all over for you
"So..you think you can call me daddy and get away with it? Well I got some news for you doll, you're 'bout to witness what punishment is coming to you~" 😈
