Cancer Cells Cheat Their Way To Help
The tumour changes immune cell behaviour, making them increase its growth instead of trying to halt it.
KILLER CELLS
Killer T cells, NK cells, and dendrite cells form part of the body's hit squad. By means of proteins on their surfaces, they
recognize and kill foreign or sick cells,including cancer cells.
CONTROL CELLS
M2 macrophages, regulating T cells, and myeloid-derived suppressor cells control the hit squad's behaviour by submitting stimulating or damping neurotransmitters.
CANCER CELLS
The cells of the tumour submit substances that make the immune system control centre dampen
the hit squad. The tumour can even make immune cells help it develop new blood vessels.
