Harnessing the Immune System to Fight Cancer
Using the immune system to fight cancer is a rapidly advancing area of research. The immune system (as it relates to fighting cancer) is made up of three components: 1) regulatory cells (TRegs), 2) killer cells, and 3) detector cells otherwise known as dendritic cells. Dendritic cells activate the killer cells and help them “home in” on the cancer.
