How Specific Killer Cell Antibodies Treatment Works
Vaccines work by introducing antigens from a pathogen into the body. This triggers an immune response that also leads to the creation of antibodies, allowing the body to recognize and combat that same pathogen in the future. While traditional vaccines are used for viruses and bacteria, specific natural killer cell vaccines work in a similar way to potentially reduce cancerous cells and shrink tumors.
Specific killer cell vaccines are a form of immunotherapy that work by stimulating the production of natural killer cells. Natural killer cells are a type of innate immune cell that has been studied for its anti-tumor activity and its regulatory role within the immune system. This vaccine targets potential cancer cells by working with your body composition to produce more natural killer cells.
How Specific Killer Cell Vaccine Treatment is Administered
The specific process may vary based on your needs and immune system, but specific natural killer cell vaccine treatments start with preparing the actual vaccine. This involves performing a biopsy on the existing tumor to remove a 1cc sample of the tumor cells. The 1cc sample is then processed and prepared, creating a vaccine. Injecting the vaccine into the body leads to the creation of specific antibodies against the patient’s cancer cells, allowing for reduced tumor size.
