Sticky and smelly issues: lessons on tumour cell and leucocyte trafficking, gene and immunotherapy of cancer.

Abstract:

:The Second Meeting of the British Society for Immunology Tumour Immunology Affinity Group (TIAG) took place at King's College (London, UK) on 17-18 June 1997 and brought together over 100 tumour immunologists from the UK and abroad. In contrast to previous meetings the focus of the meeting was on the role of adhesion in immunosurveillance and tumour dissemination. In addition, recent achievements in the areas of chemokines, cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) and natural killer (NK) cells, co-stimulation, gene and adoptive immunotherapy were also addressed. The purpose of this report is to outline current trends in tumour immunology.

  • Management preferences in stage I non-seminomatous germ cell tumours of the testis: an investigation among patients, controls and oncologists.

    abstract::Increasingly, treatment choices leading to the same survival outcome can be offered to cancer patients (e.g. mastectomy or conservative surgery in early breast cancer). Two approaches available for post-orchidectomy, stage I patients with non-seminomatous germ cell tumours of the testis (NSGCTT), particularly those at...
