Ultrasound Powers Up Killer T cells Against Cancer
Vidcast: https://www.instagram.com/p/DF_E2emOYkR/
Ultrasonic vibrations, transmitted to killer T cells via micro bubbles, trigger a 3.6 fold greater release of tumor killing proteins from the T cells. This the report from Canadian biophysicists in the journalFrontiers in Immunology.
The vibrations, transmitted to tumors from the surface via microbubbles, make the T cell membranes more permeable, more leaky. These cells then release cytokines, signaling molecules that recruit additional immune cells in the battle against the cancer cells.
This technique is non-invasive and could become a valuable adjunctive weapon in the battle to control all cancers….. someday soon.
