Antibody DTA-1 Might Be The Big Helper To Reject Cancer!

May 1st 2009 17:51
In the basic science concept, we believe that the human immune system has the ability to destroy contagious cancer cells. As a result, there are tons of cancers vaccines have been developed and hope it will be able to cure the cancerous cells. The truth is, the immune system is quite smart and they didn’t seem to take on the cancers vaccines bait at all!

Adam D.Cohen, the oncologist at Fox Chase, has recently discovered that the DTA-1 antibody has the power to impair regulatory T cells and wake up the immune system to against the cancerous cells!

Talking about DTA-1, its actually an antibody, which mainly designed to stimulate the glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor (GITR). Cohen also said that DTA-1 could be used to help the immune system against the tumor cells and wipe out the bad cancerous cells.
