Evasion of the immune system is an ominous feature of cancers, which often leads to tumor outgrowth, epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT), and metastatic disease
It may result in immunosuppression caused by chronic inflammation [2], which is known to promote the development of breast carcinoma, colorectal cancer, pancreatic adenocarcinoma, and possibly several other cancer types [5, 6]
Summary
The problem of cancer remains one of the most immense challenges to current biomedical research. Evasion of the immune system is an ominous feature of cancers, which often leads to tumor outgrowth, epithelial–mesenchymal transition (EMT), and metastatic disease. The need to understand basic mechanisms governing immune response to tumors is increasingly acute, since contemporary cancer research gradually progresses toward highly specialized personalized medicine.
