Abstract:
The immune surveillance theory continues to remain a powerful force in cancer research and therapy despite the varying degrees of enthusiasm from both its supporters and critics. The role of both specific and non-specific immune responses in the host's defense against hepatocellular carcinoma is presented as well as the possibilities of immune-system manipulation for the prevention and therapy of this tumour.
