The hardest part of beating cancer is the fear of it coming back. Learn how "Immune Surveillance" via NK cells acts as a 24/7 security system to mop up micro-metastases before they turn into a relapse. Here is the science behind reducing recurrence risk.

Key Takeaways • Two Main Types: Cell Therapy in China is primarily divided into Stem Cell Therapy (tissue repair) and Immune Cell Therapy (defense/cancer fighting). • Legal Status: Commercial stem cell treatments are strictly regulated. The Boao Lecheng Pilot Zone is the only region in mainland China legally authorized for broad commercial application. • Cost Reality: Legitimate therapies in the pilot zone are premium services, often ranging from $5,000 to over $100,000 USD depending on the regi
Perforin is the substance T and NK cells use to drill into an infected cell and kill it. Selin and Gill’s studies suggest that ME/CFS and long-COVID patients’ T cells produce almost no perforin

they also found
a huge increase in a distinct type of T-cell called double-positive T-cell (CD4+ CD8+) in people with ME/CFS and/or long COVID. Instead of being differentiated into the two usual major T-cell subsets CD4 (helper/regulatory) and CD8 (killer) T-cells, these hybrid T-cells look like both CD4 and CD8 T-cells at the same time.
Selin found that these cells increased 8-9 fold in ME/CFS and long-COVID patients.
which compensates in part for the lower perforin, but also led to
a “highly dysregulated” cytotoxic T-cell immune response [...] That suggested that the immune system was kind of flailing around, trying to come up with an answer.

Episode 5 of the Cell Therapy Podcast is out, this time about NK cells cells: How do they function and can we utilize them as a cellular therapy?
In this episode we are joined by Dr Arnika Wagner & Dr Evren Alici both from the Karolinska Institutet and Dr Sigrid Skånland from Olso University Hospital for a chat about these exciting cells and how their anti-cancer effects are explored - and can be used in the future.

#Researchers in #China have a #published a #study which they say opens up new strategies to boost the body’s first line of defence against #cancer & other diseases.
While the #immune system’s natural killer (NK) cells can recognise & kill #tumours and #virus infected cells at a very early stage, most advanced-stage #tumorous cells somehow manage to avoid detection.
