Abstract:
A theoretical model is presented based on the idea that the immune system of a patient with a tumour can cross-react against transplanted normal foreign cells as well as against the patient's own neoplastic cells, thereby rejecting both. This hypothesis is shown in a diagram, the potential use of which is discussed.
