Cancer remission due to immune impairment: A review report
Main Article Content
Abstract
Immune develops in reaction to the presence of a cancerous tumor as it grows to a certain size rather than through immunological sensitization. This is most likely due to the tumor’s slow growth, giving the immune system more time to acclimate to the new environment. Some immune system components generate “adaptive immunity” in response to a growing malignant growth, while other immune system components aim to prevent cancerous growth from developing. The immune system’s protective arm is often responsible for assuring the advancement of malignant growth. Because of the immunological tolerance, the immune system may misidentify the malignant growth as a component of the body with which it is already acquainted, adding to the protective impact.
