Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer Immunoediting: Integrating Immunity’s Roles in Cancer Suppression and Promotion

TL;DR: A unifying conceptual framework called “cancer immunoediting,” which integrates the immune system’s dual host-protective and tumor-promoting roles is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Cancer immunoediting: from immunosurveillance to tumor escape.

TL;DR: The historical and experimental basis of cancer immunoediting is summarized and its dual roles in promoting host protection against cancer and facilitating tumor escape from immune destruction are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

An endotoxin-induced serum factor that causes necrosis of tumors

TL;DR: It is proposed that TNF mediates endotoxin-induced tumor necrosis, and that it may be responsible for the suppression of transformed cells by activated macrophages.
Journal ArticleDOI

IFNγ, and lymphocytes prevent primary tumour development and shape tumour immunogenicity

TL;DR: It is shown that lymphocytes and IFNγ collaborate to protect against development of carcinogen-induced sarcomas and spontaneous epithelial carcinomas and also to select for tumour cells with reduced immunogenicity, which explains the apparent paradox of tumour formation in immunologically intact individuals.
Journal ArticleDOI

The three Es of cancer immunoediting.

TL;DR: The history of the cancer immunosurveillance controversy is summarized and its resolution and evolution into the three Es of cancer immunoediting--elimination, equilibrium, and escape are discussed.
