A deadly form of skin cancer is able to fend off the body's immune system, Uk researchers have found. analysis of tumour and lood samples shows that melanoma knocks out the body's best immune defence. by mimicking the conditions created by melanomas, they showed that in the presence of tumour cells, the immune system sent out IgG4 antibodies, but when faced with healthy cells it functioned as expected with IgG1 circulating. In additional tests in 33 patients, they found that those with higher levels of the weak antibody IgG4 had a less favourable prognosis compared with those with levels nearer to normal.
In my opinion this discovery will help a lot in the skin cancer researches, I think that many people will be glad to know that there are some people that are looking for skinc cancer treatmens and how de bad cells afect the body.
