Let’s explore the field
of tumor immunology.
The field of tumor immunology really
involves several different things.
First of all, like any cell in the body, cells of the
immune system can themselves become malignant cells.
They can transform into tumor cells.
A second aspect is whether naturally there is an
immune response that develops when a tumor arises.
Just like an immune response
develops to an infection.
And then finally, the possibility of harnessing
components of the immune system to attack tumors.
