An ovarian germ cell tumor is a growth in a woman's ovaries. Most of these tumors aren’t cancer. Instead, they are “benign” growths. Cancerous germ cell tumors are rare. They make up only 2% ...

called adaptive NK cells, to remember ovarian tumors and effectively attack them. The discovery, published in Cancer Immunology Research, could pave the way for new, more powerful immunotherapies for ...

Although tumor-infiltrating T cells have been documented in ovarian carcinoma, a clear association with clinical outcome has not been established. CD3+ tumor-infiltrating T cells were detected ...

In particular, natural killer cells, are emerging as an optimal cell target for immunotherapy in ovarian cancer. Natural killer cells are a type of white blood cell responsible for eliminating ...

A diagnosis of ovarian cancer carries a dual threat—the disease itself and the danger of the cancer spreading. Now new research has uncovered a crucial factor, leader cells, that is a key to both.

The types of ovarian cancer are grouped by the kind of cell where they start. Your ovaries have three main types of cells, and a tumor can develop in any of them. The three types are: Most cases ...

Ovarian cancer arises when ovary cells mutate, causing them to grow abnormally. While this can trigger a number of bodily responses, a white blood cell count is not a diagnostic tool for ovarian ...
