Understanding NK Cell Therapy
NK cell therapy or Natural Killer cell therapy, involves the use of natural killer (NK) cells to enhance the immune system’s ability to combat infections and target cancer cells.
NK cells are a type of white blood cell known for their ability to detect and destroy abnormal cells including virus-infected, tumorous and senescent cells without the need for prior activation.
Benefits of NK Cell Therapy
- Boosted Immune System: Enhances the body’s natural immune response, helping to fight off infections, viruses and potential cancerous cells.
- Enhanced Recovery: Increases recovery rate for illnesses and improves overall health by maintaining a vigilant and responsive immune system.
Application of NK Cell therapy:
- Cancer Treatment: Targets and destroys cancer cells to prevent spread and recurrences.
- Chronic Infections: For individuals suffering from chronic infections, NK cell therapy enhances the body’s ability to combat persistent pathogens.
- Immune Deficiency Disorders: Boost immune response, protect against opportunistic infections and arising health issues.
