NK Cells

Natural Killer (NK) cells, an integral part of the immune system, play a pivotal role in the body's defense against tumors and virally infected cells. Unlike other immune cells, NK cells can act without the need for prior activation, rapidly identifying and destroying harmful cells in the body.

​

Key Elements:

• Rapid Response: NK cells can swiftly recognize and target tumor cells without prior sensitization.

• Innate Immunity: They are part of the body's first line of defense, functioning in the innate immune system.

• Versatility: Their natural ability allows them to tackle a variety of abnormal cells.

​

Benefits:

• Tumor Surveillance: Actively scans and destroys early-stage tumor cells, preventing their growth and multiplication.

• Enhanced Immunity: Boosts the body's innate ability to identify and eliminate potentially harmful cells.

• Combats Viral Infections: Recognizes and kills virally infected cells, reducing the spread and severity of infections.

• Adjunct to Cancer Therapies: Can be used in conjunction with other treatments, enhancing their efficacy.

• Low Toxicity: Natural, self-regulating mechanism reduces chances of collateral damage to healthy cells.

• Immune Modulation: NK cell therapies can be designed to enhance or suppress specific immune responses, providing therapeutic benefits.
