cancer

Up until recently, cancer treatment has focused on bombarding the cancer cells with toxic chemicals or harmful radiation. This puts surrounding cells and even the entire body under stress to repair the damage caused by these stressors. But what if the body’s own natural defense system could be educated to target specific cancer cells and then enhanced and supplemented to be able to fight the cancer cells? That is exactly what the new called chimeric antigen receptor (CAR) T cell therapy does.
