suppression immunotherapies

Examples of suppression immunotherapies in the following topics:

• Cytokine Therapy

  • Immunotherapy is treating a disease by either inducing, enhancing or suppressing the immune system.
  • Immunotherapy is a medical term defined as the "treatment of disease by inducing, enhancing, or suppressing an immune response".
  • Immunotherapies designed to elicit or amplify an immune response are classified as activation immunotherapies.
  • On the other hand, immunotherapies that reduce or suppress immune response are classified as suppression immunotherapies.
  • The active agents of immunotherapy are collectively called immunomodulators.

• Immunotherapy for Cancer

  • Cancer immunotherapy is the use of the body's own immune system to reject cancer.
  • Cancer immunotherapy is the use of the body's own immune system to reject cancer.
  • Cell-based immunotherapy is another major entity of cancer immunotherapy.
  • GD2 is thus a convenient tumor-specific target for immunotherapies.
  • The development and testing of second-generation immunotherapies is already under way.

• Cancer Immunology

  • It is also a growing field of research that aims to discover innovative cancer immunotherapies to treat and retard progression of this disease.
  • Cancer immunotherapy attempts to stimulate the immune system to reject and destroy tumors.
  • BCG immunotherapy for early stage (non-invasive) bladder cancer utilizes instillation of attenuated live bacteria into the bladder, and is effective in preventing recurrence in up to two thirds of cases.
  • Injection immunotherapy uses mumps, candida the HPV vaccine or trichophytin antigen injections to treat warts (HPV induced tumors).
  • Lung cancer has been demonstrated to potentially respond to immunotherapy.

• Diagnosis and Treatment of Allergy

  • Studies have demonstrated the long-term efficacy and the preventive effect of immunotherapy in reducing the development of new allergies.
  • A second form of immunotherapy involves the intravenous injection of monoclonal anti-IgE antibodies.

• Burkitt's Lymphoma

  • Other treatments are immunotherapy, bone marrow transplants, stem cell transplant, surgery to remove the tumor, and radiotherapy.

• Allergies

  • Immunotherapy employs the injection of allergens in order to gradually desensitize the body's response.

• Opportunistic Microorganisms

  • Opportunistic microorganisms lay dormant until the hosts' immune system is suppressed and then they seize the opportunity to attack.
  • HIV is an opportunistic infections that feeds on the fact the the immune system is suppressed.
  • They lay dormant for long periods of time until the hosts' immune system is suppressed and then they seize the opportunity to attack.

• Hormones of the Digestive System

  • There are hormones secreted by tissues and organs in the body that are transported through the bloodstream to the satiety center, a region in the brain that triggers impulses that give us feelings of hunger or aid in suppressing our appetite.
  • It is released by the hypothalamus and signals that you have just eaten and helps to suppress our appetite.
  • The pancreas releases the hormone insulin, which targets the hypothalamus and also aids in suppressing our appetite after we have just eaten and there is a rise in blood glucose levels.
  • The last hormone is leptin which also helps to suppress appetite.

• Breast Cancer

  • This may include surgery, drugs (hormonal therapy and chemotherapy), radiation and/or immunotherapy.

• Factors Affecting Voter Turnout

  • Many causes have been proposed for the decline in voting, including demographics, voter fatigue and voter suppression, among other things.
  • Voter suppression instead attempts to reduce the number of voters who might vote against the candidate or proposition advocated by the suppressors.
  • Similarly, voter suppression is a strategy to influence the outcome of an election by discouraging or preventing people from exercising their right to vote .
  • Voter suppression instead attempts to reduce the number of voters who might vote against the candidate or proposition advocated by the suppressors.
