new type of cancer treatment
NeuroNootropic 26 Jan 2013
This may sound like a dumb question, but why can't we inject white blood cells into another person's body to fight the cancer? My understanding is that the cancer patient's immune system does not recognize and attack the cancer cells, at least from the video this was the case. So then why not give the patient exogenous white blood cells to attack the cancer? Exogenous white blood cells attack both cancer cells as well as normal cells because they see them as foreign. Maybe inject the white blood cells directly into the cancer cells for maximum effect with little side effects?
Can someone explain to me why that idea isn't being put to use, whether it's because that's not how cancer works or if it's practically not possible?
