NK Immune Cells

  • Immune Cell Therapy

  • Personalized cancer treatment service using stored cells

    Immune cells are collected directly from the blood, cultured outside the body to increase the number of immune cells or strengthen their function, and then injected back into the body to treat the disease.

    01 Function of NK cells

    • It is an innate immune cell that protects the body from cancer cells, viruses, and inflammation.
    • Unlike other immune cells such as B cells and T cells, they are activated without recognizing antigens and directly attack and eliminate infected cells or cancer cells.
    • There are approximately 50,000 to 100 million cells per person, but 5 to 10% are lymphocytes.
    • Actively searches for cancer cells and causes target cells to commit suicide or necrosis.

    02 Characteristics of NK cells

    • Has the ability to recognize and eliminate all foreign cells.
    • It is effective for cancer prevention, removal of residual cancer after surgery, and anti-cancer treatment.
    • Has immunomodulatory effects.
    • Recognized for stability.
    • Cancer cell toxicity is 20-30% higher than that of T cells and dendritic cells.
