The doctors told me some stuff i pretty much knew already. its a battle with my skin and sinus daily. Immunotherapy will help over time. #immunotherapy ##allergic ##Allergies ##Nightmare ##SkinBattle ##Therapy ##Injections ##sinus ##DoctorVisits ##allergicreaction ##doctorsoftiktok ##doctorsoffice ##therapyjourney
The immune system is a living drug and harnessing it has been a game changer in treating kidney cancer. Dr. Evan Hall has seen the results first hand of treating kidney cancer patients with immunotherapy #immunotherapy #cancertreatment #cancertok #cancer #cancerawareness #kidneycancer #kidneycancerawareness #kidneycancerawarenessmonth
Mary-Jill Asrat says chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy saved their 8-year-old son Hugo's life, and now B.C. says it is beginning to offer the cancer treatment in-province. Commonly referred to as CAR-T, the immunotherapy treatment uses a patient's own white blood cells to fight cancer cells. It is designed for lymphoma and leukemia patients who haven't had success with chemotherapy or radiation. Health Minister Adrian Dix said up to 20 adults and five children will be able to access the treatment at Vancouver General and B.C. Children's Hospitals starting this month. #cartcelltherapy #britishcolumbia #health #cancer #pediatriccancer #leukemia #lymphoma
The Best Cancer News! Thank you all for your love and support! We’ll still be posting a few more cancer related videos, especially what we’ve learned that can help others navigate the terrifying fever dream of being diagnosed & having to deal with our ridiculous healthcare system, but right now we are just so grateful. #remission #jimallison #immunotherapy #melanoma #stage4cancer #skincancer #cancer #cancerjourney #inremission #cancerfree #grateful #stage4melanoma
she must be the hypervariable region the way she always switch it up on me "In addition to being crucial for our normal immune response, antibodies provide powerful tools for research and diagnostic purposes. The high specificity of antibodies makes them an excellent tool for detecting and quantifying a broad array of targets, from drugs to serum proteins to microorganisms. With in vitro assays, antibodies can be used to precipitate soluble antigens, agglutinate (clump) cells, opsonize and unalive bacteria with the assistance of complement, and neutralize drugs, toxins, and viruses. Some types of assays require better antibody specificity and affinity than can be obtained using a polyclonal antiserum. To attain this high specificity, all of the antibodies must bind with high affinity to a single epitope. This high specificity can be provided by monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). Unlike polyclonal antibodies, which are produced in live animals, monoclonal antibodies are produced in vitro using tissue-culture techniques. mAbs are produced by immunizing an animal, often a mouse, multiple times with a specific antigen. B cells from the spleen of the immunized animal are then removed. Since normal B cells are unable to proliferate forever, they are fused with immortal, cancerous B cells called myeloma cells, to yield hybridoma cells. All of the cells are then placed in a selective medium that allows only the hybridomas to grow; unfused myeloma cells cannot grow, and any unfused B cells unalive. The hybridomas, which are capable of growing continuously in culture while producing antibodies, are then screened for the desired mAb. Those producing the desired mAb are grown in tissue culture; the culture medium is harvested periodically and mAbs are purified from the medium. This is a very expensive and time-consuming process. It may take weeks of culturing and many liters of media to provide enough mAbs for an experiment or to treat a single patient." #cancer #biologytok #immunology #immunotherapy #apbio
Replying to @deirdrekelly436 How does immunotherapy work? Part 2 of my cancer treatment series!
