American scientists Mary Brunkow and Fred Ramsdell, together with Japan's Shimon Sakaguchi, have been honored with the 2025 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine. Their pivotal research, which focuses on peripheral immune tolerance and regulatory T cells, offers new insights into preventing autoimmune diseases and developing potential cancer treatments.

The laureates' groundbreaking work delves into how regulatory T cells, a special class of white blood cells, help the immune system differentiate between harmful and healthy cells. Their findings are expected to revolutionize approaches towards combatting autoimmune disorders and open new frontiers in immunotherapy.

With ongoing clinical trials exploring therapeutic applications, the scientific community has high hopes for these discoveri
