Why this matters
For decades, severe autoimmune diseases have required lifelong management with toxic immunosuppressive drugs that leave patients vulnerable to infection. This breakthrough demonstrates that a one-time cellular therapy can effectively 'reboot' the immune system, offering a functional cure that could eventually be applied to multiple sclerosis, rheumatoid arthritis, and beyond.
