- More about Interaction of Immune and Cancer Cells
This book discusses the role of immune cells in tumor suppression and progression, including why tumor cells can survive and spread despite the antitumor response of immune cells. It also provides information on immunotherapy strategies, such as monoclonal antibodies and adaptive T cell immunotherapy, and focuses on recent human clinical trials.

Immune Cells in Cancer: Role, Survival, and Progression
Immune cells play a crucial role in tumor suppression and progression, yet tumor cells often evade the immune response and survive and spread. In this second edition, the book summarizes the complex interplay between immune cells and tumor cells, exploring the mechanisms that allow tumors to evade immune detection and destruction.
The book provides a comprehensive overview of immune cells in cancer, covering their functions, types, and interactions. It explains how immune cells can suppress tumor growth, but also how tumors can evade immune surveillance and trigger immune suppression. The book also discusses the role of immune checkpoint inhibitors in blocking immune checkpoints and restoring immune responses against cancer.
Since immunotherapy is an increasingly attractive approach to cancer therapy, the book provides detailed information on the two main strategies: monoclonal antibodies and adaptive T cell immunotherapy. It highlights recent human clinical trials and discusses the potential benefits and challenges of these therapies. A newly added chapter focuses on the role of Natural Killer cells in tumor progression, providing insights into their mechanisms and potential therapeutic applications.
The book is an indispensable resource for researchers and practitioners working or lecturing in the field of cancer research and immunology. It offers a state-of-the-art, comprehensive overview of immune cells in cancer, providing insights into the mechanisms of tumor suppression and progression. The book will be valuable to students, researchers, and clinicians seeking to better understand the role of immune cells in cancer and develop new therapeutic strategies.
