Nobel Prize for how immune system stops destructive rampage

The Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine 2025 is awarded for discoveries on how the immune system prevents self-attack. Shimon Sakaguchi, Mary Brunkow, and Fred Ramsdell were recognized for their work on regulatory T-cells that disarm immune cells from attacking the body. Their findings are crucial for developing treatments for autoimmune diseases and cancer by understanding how the immune system protects against infections while sparing healthy tissues.
