The main response of the immune system to tumors is to destroy the abnormal cells using killer T cells, sometimes with the assistance of helper T cells. Tumor antigens are presented on MHC class I molecules in a similar way to viral antigens. This allows killer T cells to recognize the tumor cell as abnormal.
The many resulting T cells can then stimulate other T cells to attack the foreign pathogen, or they can stimulate B cells to produce antibodies. These antibodies, along with other cells in the immune system, then destroy the foreign invaders, helping to ensure the health of the individual.he macrophage is just one cell type that may present antigens in the MHCII complex; other cells, including B cells and dendritic cells, may also act as antigen-presenting cells (APC). Only a few helper T cells in the immune system will recognize the specific antigen presented by the APC.
