Microscopic images of a normal heart valve in a mouse, left, and a heart valve grown in a lab with heart-derived macrophages blocked, right. Without those macrophages, the valves are thick and deformed

Research by UCLA’s Gay Crooks, Amélie Montel-Hagen and Christopher Seet could point the way toward “off-the-shelf” T cell therapies that are more readily available to patients.
