Novel Protein in Immune Cells Regulates Anti-Tumor Function

Cancer dysregulates the complex structure of tissues and internal cellular pathways. As a result, the immune system loses its ability to effectively target tumor cells. The immune system is made up of two barriers of protection against pathogens and deleterious infections. Specifically, the innate and adaptive immune responses work together to provide effective immunity. The innate immune system is the first responder to any unfamiliar pathogen. It is a…
