By avoiding detection and destruction by the immune system, cancer cells spread and grow. Stimulation of the immune system can help to eliminate cancer cells; however, there are many factors that cause the immune system to ignore cancer cells.

Researchers Try Modulating the Immune System to Combat Metastatic Cancer
By avoiding detection and destruction by the immune system, cancer cells spread and grow. Stimulation of the immune system can help to eliminate cancer cells; however, there are many factors that cause the immune system to ignore cancer cells. Regulatory T cells are immune cells that function to suppress the immune system response.
