How does cancer arise?
Dysregulated cell growth & proliferation => Transformation
A clone of cells expanding indefinitely => A tumor
Tumor cells => the body and cause diseases => Cancer
![Page 10: Introduction of Tumor Immunology](https://reader035.vdocuments.site/reader035/viewer/2022062517/568137d7550346895d9f75ff/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
How does cancer arise? How does cancer arise? IIII
Q: What causes dysregulated cell growth & proliferation?
• Intrinsic factors - Genetic mutations on Oncogenes & Tumor suppressor genes
• Environmental factors – Radiation, Carcinogens
• Microbial infections – Viruses (viral oncogenes) Bacteria

The Strategies for Cancer The Strategies for Cancer TherapyTherapy
The best scenario – Kill all the tumor cells without destroy others in the body
1. Surgery – remove tumor cells & tissues physically 2. Radiotherapy – non-selective, strong side effect3. Chemotherapy - non-selective, strong side effect4. Gene therapy – relatively selective5. Targeted therapy - relatively selective6. Immunotherapy => manipulate an immune
response against tumor cells but not normal cells => quite selective

Key Concepts in Tumor immunity
1. Tumors express Ags that are recognized as foreign by the host immune system.
2. Immune responses frequently fail to prevent the growth of tumors.
3. The immune system can be activated by external stimuli to effectively kill tumor cells and eradicate tumors.
4. Various strategies have been developing to enhance the
anti-tumor immune responses.

Discovery of Immune surveillance
of tumors1. Immune Surveillance- Macfarlane Burnet in 1950s
2. Use syngeneic mouse strain => Transplantation exp
3. Immunization w/ irradiated tumor X cells protects a syngeneic mouse w/ live X
tumor cells but not Y tumor cells.
4. Antigens expressed by tumors, termed tumor antigens.
5. Defense against tumors is mainly mediated by T cells

Immune responses to tumors
1. Adaptive immune responses to tumors: a. CD8 CTLs are the key players on the killing effect of tumors. b. CD4 T helper cells => cytokines => CTLs c. Abs => activating complements or Ab-dep cell-med toxicity => preventing oncogenic viruses
2. Innate immune responses to tumors: a. NK cells kill many types of tumor cells that have reduced clas
s-I but express ligands for activating NK cells. b. Macrophages => Ab-med phagocytosis => Cytokines (TNF-a), ROS, & NO

Q: Why tumors still develop in the body if the immune system has the ability to recognize them?
Tumors develop many ways to escape from immune attacks

SUMMARY1. Cancer is a complex and progressive genetic disease.
2. Tumors express Ags that could be recognized by the immune system. But some tumors are weakly immunogenic and the immune system often fails to eradicate them.
3. Cancer from clinical cases usually represents the leading of cancer development over the anti-cancer immune responses.
4. The imperative issue in the field of tumor immunology is
to improve the capability of immune defenses to fight cancer.
