Immunotherapy
arose as an advanced and effective treatment to fight against cancer. With the
help of this blog we are going to give you an introduction of immunotherapy, its
applications and why it is the most used therapy these days. Immunotherapy is
the treatment of any type of disease, through the enhancement, suppression, or
induction of a response from the immune system. And to simplify it even
further, it is used to either amplify or suppress an immunity effect. Simple,
isn’t it!
There
are two main types of this immune based therapy such as Activation immune based
therapy and Suppression Immune based therapies. Immunomodulators are mainly the
active agents of this type of treatment which act either by activation of the
immune system or by suppression of the immune system. And they are made of
various preparations, that could be natural, synthetic or even recombinant,
Cytokines are often the case, but let us take a look at several examples of them
which include Cytokines such as Interferons, G-CSF, Chemokines such as CCL3,
CCL26, Interleukins such as IL 2 to IL 12 and others like cytosine phosphate
guano sine, glucans.

These
types of active agents are attractive for usage as a regimen because they often
have side effects that are not as strong or unfavorable as drugs and also
create less resistance when it comes to microbial diseases.
These
immunomodulators are used for is called cell based immunotherapy, which has
proven to be effective for some kind of cancer. Immune effector cells are like
natural killer cells, dendritic cells, macrophages, cytotoxic T lymphocytes and
so on.
Mainly
the way to work to protect the body is by targeting abnormal antigen on the
surface of the cancerous cells that have mutated.
So,
all this shows the introduction and applications of immunotherapy through this
blog. It is a leading therapy and a novel area of cancer research in recent
years. It holds promises and is effective in treating various cancers in
comparison to other traditional therapies such as radiation therapy,
chemotherapy and surgery.
