Article Synopsis
- Leukemia is a type of cancer affecting the bone marrow and blood, resulting from abnormal changes in hematopoietic stem cells, and it has four main types: AML, ALL, CML, and CLL.
- Traditional treatments like chemotherapy and radiation have significant downsides, such as increased risk of infections and negative side effects, leading to a search for alternative therapies.
- Immunotherapy, particularly using natural killer (NK) cells, shows promise in treating leukemia by enhancing the body’s immune response against cancer cells, with various innovative approaches being researched, like monoclonal antibodies and CAR-NKs.
