Immune escape of tumors: apoptosis resistance and tumor counterattack.
Interactions between the immune system and malignant cells play an important role in tumorigenesis. Failure of the immune system to detect and reject transformed cells may lead to cancer development. Tumors use multiple mechanisms to escape from immune-mediated rejection. Many of these mechanisms are now known on a cellular and molecular level. Despite this knowledge, cancer immunotherapy is st...
متن کاملSchizoaffective disorder: concept and reality.
A wide variety of concepts have been proposed to account for schizoaffective psychoses. Presenting a mixture of schizophrenic and affective symptoms, these psychoses have long defied classification in the usual scheme of the two major diagnostic categories, schizophrenia and major affective disorder. Empirical findings are often contradictory, and have sometimes supported the classification of ...
متن کاملBoltzmann's Concept of Reality
In this article we describe and analyze the concept of reality developed by the Austrian theoretical physicist Ludwig Boltzmann. It is our thesis that Boltzmann was fully aware that reality could, and actually was, described by different points of view. In spite of this, Boltzmann did not renounce the idea that reality is real. We also discuss his main motivations to be strongly involved with p...
متن کاملRole of tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) in advanced gastric carcinoma: the impact on FasL-mediated counterattack.
BACKGROUND Exactly what role does tumor-derived Fas ligand (FasL) play in cancer: maintaining the immune privilege site or inducing a pro-inflammatory effect? One possible hypothesis is that tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) act as the mediator that enables apoptosis of anti-tumor immune cells without FasL-related inflammation. We have evaluated the tumor FasL expression and TAM along the tumo...
متن کاملMedical bioremediation: a concept moving toward reality.
Abstract A major driver of aging is catabolic insufficiency, the inability of our bodies to break down certain substances that accumulate slowly throughout the life span. Even though substance buildup is harmless while we are young, by old age the accumulations can reach a toxic threshold and cause disease. This includes some of the most prevalent diseases in old age-atherosclerosis and macular...
