Popis: The immune surveillance theory states that cancer cells having foreign antigens on their surfaces, are recognized and destroyed by cells of the immune system before they can grow into a life-threatening tumor. The foreign antigens would be recognized by the immune system triggering the production of cytotoxic T lymphocytes specifically directed against the antigens1.
