Cancer immunotherapy by immunosuppression Prehn RT; Prehn LMTheor Biol Med Model 2010[Dec]; 7 (ä): 45We have previously suggested that the stimulatory effect of a weak immune reaction on tumor growth may be necessary for the growth of incipient tumors. In the present paper, we enlarge upon and extend that idea by collecting evidence in the literature bearing upon the new hypothesis that a growing cancer, whether in man or mouse, is throughout its lifespan, probably growing and progressing because of continued immune stimulation by a weak immune reaction. We also suggest that prolonged immunosuppression might interfere with progression and thus be an aid to therapy. While most of the considerable evidence that supports the hypothesis comes from observations of experimental mouse tumors, there is suggestive evidence that human tumors may behave in much the same way, and as far as we can ascertain, there is no present evidence that necessarily refutes the hypothesis.|*Immunosuppression Therapy[MESH]|*Immunotherapy[MESH]|Animals[MESH]|Disease Models, Animal[MESH]|Disease Progression[MESH]|Humans[MESH]|Immune Tolerance/immunology[MESH]|Mice[MESH]|Models, Immunological[MESH]|Neoplasms/*immunology/pathology/*therapy[MESH] |
