immune surveillance

It may also be important in immune surveillance against cancer.

In fact, they do so on an ongoing basis, and cancer develops only when immune surveillance breaks down.

NK-cells do immune surveillance, attack pathogens and abnormal cells.

Dr. Schreiber's work focuses on the concept of immune surveillance in cancer pathogenesis.

Compared to the spiral form, spheroplasts of B. burgdorferi have reduced surface area exposed to immune surveillance.

Nevertheless, many researchers hold to the importance of such immune surveillance, and are conducting about 60 trials of experimental cancer vaccines.

"Reducing immunosuppression allowed her immune surveillance mechanism to work in the rest of the body, but not in her brain."

Failure of immune surveillance, the removal of malignant cells throughout one's life by the immune system.

The original immune surveillance hypothesis proposed that tumor cells arise naturally and are normally eradicated by the immune system.

Similarly, TGFβ can promote tumor invasion and evasion of immune surveillance at advanced stages.

In P. falciparum it has been has been shown to regulate the expression of surface antigens to evade the detection by host immune surveillance.

Apart from the mutagenesis, overexposure to sunlight depresses the local immune system, possibly decreasing immune surveillance for new tumor cells.

A balance is eventually struck between occasional viral reactivation and host immune surveillance removing cells that activate viral gene expression.

The human body makes millions of different types of B cells each day that circulate in the blood and lymphatic system performing the role of immune surveillance.
