An undead city under siege, soldiers and police ruthlessly shooting down waves of zombies that flood from infected streets, trying to escape and infect more cities. This is what happens when your body fights cancer, more exciting than any movie.
How does this battle for survival unfold?

Cancer researcher here! Very good video on one of the hallmarks of cancer: Immune Escape. I'd like to point out that in this last stage of dangerous cancer, part of the immune system does more than just suppress T cells, they actually get their hands dirty with building tumor town too. In a real tumor, the majority of the occupants aren't necessarily cancer cells. The rest are either trying to restrain the tumor, or help it grow bigger as the cancer corrupts the functions of the "normal" cells. It is truly a story of duplicitous agents!
@jaggedjottings 10 ай бұрын
Yep, a large percentage of tumors are actually pro-tumor macrophages secreting anti-inflammatory, pro-vasculature, and pro-remodeling cytokines. The tumor is actually harnessing the branch of the immune response that evolved to fight multicellular parasites.

The scariest thing about cancer is that it's often incredibly difficult to detect. Sure, we have all sorts of tests that can identify cancer, but the fact is that in most cases you're not going to ask your doctor for those tests until symptoms have started appearing. Depending on what type of cancer it is, it may be too late to stop it at that point. And yes, there are regular tests for specific types of cancer, like breast cancer or prostate cancer, but you'd never think think to screen for something like pancreatic cancer.
@hedgehog3180 6 ай бұрын
The reason why we don't screen everyone is because all tests have the rist of false positives and false negatives. With many of these tests they aren't accurate enough for it to make sense to screen everyone because you'd end up with way too many false positives and that'd obviously impact people's lives and divert resources for those that need it. This is generally why medicine is fundamentally based on responding to symptoms, if there is a symptom then you already know something is up so a test makes a lot more sense. The exceptions here are either tests that are so accurate that they make sense to everyone or pandemic situations where you know a large % of the population will be affected anyways, and a false positive isn't as big a deal since you might as well be cautious.

If u do blood analysis correctly u can detect many type of cancers (u can check pancreatic enzymes, liver enzymes, tumor marker, ecc. If u add to that an abdomen ecography every year, X-rays chest and colonoscopy every 5-10 years (depending on your risk factors) u can detect pretty much everything. U would leave out brain tumours which are rare, for that it would better an mri but yeah they are a lot of exam and many people decide not to do them

@@olivierotorricelli599 The amount of resources that would take up to do that for every person would probably destroy the healthcare system haha. Also blood tests are not that accurate for most cancers as you need baseline levels and a lot of these levels fluctuate throughout the day. They are good if you have a suspicion that something is wrong (other signs and symptoms), but don't work that well as a screening program (with a few exceptions).

@@TheMagicalPinata The US healthcare system yes. Not all healthcare in the world is as ridiculously expensive as it is in the US. On the other hand, technologies like MRI if used in-mass will likely become cheaper and cheaper, making them a good option for early cancer detection, all cancer-type detection, and making more effective, surgeries, immunotherapy or radiation.

My wife survived stage 3 stomach cancer (it had metastasized from her ovarian cancer from like 12 yrs prior, before I was in the picture). It got to the point where chemo/radiation stopped working, then put her on a clinical trial, which also didnt work. Then, as a "long shot", tried immunotherapy....and it worked! Shes the strongest person Ive ever known. I highly recommend the Immune System book! Its a great read and its only barely scratching the surface of the topic.

Because the cancer cells have no "goal." They simply are existing. It is easy to humanize different things, as this video does, because it makes it a bit easier to understand but cancer cells simply exist. They aren't like a parasite that wants to reproduce from a host, they are just abnormal cells that due to errors in their genetic code are causing issues. They aren't "intentionally" causing any problems. Cells don't have any "desires" in general, they just respond to chemical stimuli. They aren't like multicellular organisms that have higher cognitive functions.

The largest tragedy of cancer is the gross misunderstanding of the root causes, which a long with bias, has lead cancer research down the wrong path. Nuclear transfer studies have shown cancer is NOT caused by DNA mutations, as is currently accepted. These are at best secondary epiphenomenon, which might play a role in the type and how cancer presents once you have cancer, but are not the root cause. The root cause is now known to be metabolic in origin. The Press Pulse method of treatment is a non toxic treatm and the patient ends up healthier after treatment. Research and treatment using this knowledge is in it's early stages, but is seeing amazing results. Hopefully soon it will be large RCT trials, but struggles to even be permitted vs standard of care due to the existing dogma. There are many published articles on animals, and I look forward to studies on humans. So far this has been used for case studies on humans, even curing glioblastomas. Highly recommend the research of Dr. Thomas Seyfried. Should he live to see his research completed, he'll be in line for a Nobel prize in medicine.

@@Unsensitive My apologies, but I heavily disagree with your summary of cancer research. I find the research of Dr. Tomas Seyfried to be really interesting though! Cancer metabolism is a hot field of research earning a lot of attention. Cancer is definitely a metabolic disease, and manipulating its metabolism may very well be the key to treating cancer in the future. I do think you may be misunderstanding how cancers grow and evolve. There are genes called tumor suppressors and oncogenes. Every form of cancer that has been studied so far has some combination of silencing tumor suppressors and dysregulating oncogenes, though how each tumor accomplishes that varies wildly. The dysregulation of the cell cycle and cellular machinery manifests as metabolic disturbances that help to sustain an uncontrollably dividing cell. That being said, epigenetic silencing of tumor suppressors is a thing, and nuclear transplantation can reverse epigenetic alterations. I think that certain examples could yield nuclear transplantations that seemingly reverse cancer, but this wouldn't be true for cancers of chromosomal rearrangement or the complete deletions of entire regions of chromosomes containing a number of tumor suppressor genes.

@@Unsensitive Unfortunately, if the research is only done by one person, and only pushed by that one person, it has a better-than-average chance of being quackery. There's a long history of doctors and medical researchers, often very intelligent people, who become convinced that they have found "the truth", and when their ideas don't stand up to scrutiny, double down rather than following good scientific practice and rethinking. I'm looking into Seyfried's work, but much of what I've found so far is not encouraging.

My Nana had so many kinds of cancer for decades and eventually died in her 80s of 'natural causes.' She was fine in the morning, then wasn't, then died that same day. For her it started with cervical, then endometrial, ovarian, liver, skin - so many surgeries for skin... there were others but I honestly can't remember them all - really thought the liver of all things would kill her and I remember her being very sick in the hospital for a while with that and one other at the same time but she fully recovered and went on for another 15+ years. I'm glad I witnessed this because it's allowed me to speak with hope to the people in my life who've gone through it since.

I'm so glad to see you bringing up immunotherapy. While its recognition is recent, the theory has been around for decades. My best friend when I was a child in the '70s was one of the first test subjects of immunotherapy. He was diagnosed with cancer at the age of 6, and he was given six months to live. His mother took him to a therapist named Dr. Livingston in San Diego, who was experimenting with this new concept she called immunotherapy. The idea was pretty basic: she trained the immune system to fight the cancer cells by coating them with tuberculosis. As you point out in this video, cancer spreads by convincing the immune system that it isn't a threat. So her idea was to give it something that it knew to fight on top of what she wanted it to fight. The system worked much of the time. However, the AMA was too stubborn to take her work seriously, and they refused to recognize her work as legitimate. She was called a quack, and fell into obscurity. About a decade after her death, her work was carried on once again, and built up; this time it was taken more seriously. A few years ago it was given the Pulitzer Prize for Medicine, and is now considered one of the four pillars for fighting cancer. People should know, though, that it all traces back to Dr. Virginia Livingston. (To be fair, her theories on what caused cancer were bogus, and her record keeping left much to be desired; both of which damaged her credibility. But she deserves the credit for coming up with the theories that led to the current treatment of cancer.)

It is overwhelming sometimes. But just slow down and take things one step at a time. Point in the direction you want to go and put just one foot forward. Repeat as many times as it takes. Setbacks are a reality, and sometimes they're big. I survived chemo and can tell you that keeping a keen focus on what's important in your life coupled with some healthy determination go a long way. Is some of it luck? Yes. But early detection (my trick was finding normal fleshy tissue that had turned hard and asked my doc why) and proactive treatment help a lot. And don't be afraid to ask questions until you're 100% at peace with the care decisions you'll make. Also, sorry if any of this made things worse.

As a fellow cancer survivor myself I have to slightly disagree. There might be no DEFINITIVE way to prevent it (yet). But a healthy body with a healthy immune system does lower the risk substantially. Cancer wasn't as bad of a thing way back in the old days. Our unhealthy diets and way of life is a paradise for cancer. Today about 40% of people are expected to develop cancer during their lifetime. Those numbers are insane. Basically there are 3 factors to cancer. Health (including mental health), environmental factors and genetics. What made me really mad during the therapy and post cancer care is that somehow only genetics was really talked about. "Did anyone in your family have cancer?". And after the operation when you're "healed", they basically tell you to just live your life as always. But that's wrong. While you can't control your genetics. You DO have some control over what you eat, how healthy of a way you live, and to a certain extend how you protect yourself against environmental factors. Like reducing contact with products that contain Phthalates, BPA and many other unhealthy substances. Most vegetables contain incredible compounds that inhibit cancer growth in a myriad of different ways. Sure you can be unlucky and develop cancer despite doing all you can to lower your risk. Or you can be lucky and never develop cancer despite eating fast food all the time and smoking a pack of tabaco every day. That's just the way the probability game is. But your own decisions DO have significant influence to escape the average statistics. Every one of us does already have ways to fight cancer today while we wait for science to find even more ways.

Everyone knows someone who is or was affected by it. Strangely though... I don't. I know a couple of people with rare conditions that are no less horrible though. :(

I didn't have a tumor, so my cancer was a little different but when I had leukemia (APL), I often visualized my rouge multiplying promyelocytes cells getting nuked by my chemo. I envisioned the chemo as a sentient sword like Nightblood, wanting to destroying evil. 🤣 In my imagination there were also a lot of cells animated like knights on horseback and duels to the death. But this animation is also pretty awesome! 👾

@IgorNV the immune system IS disturbing. It's a violent, foaming-at-the-mouth monster which causes just few enough issues compared to what it solves that it's a net benefit You have a whole organ- the thyroid- whose only purpose is stopping the immune system from creating cells that'll kill yourself. This process is so intensive that your thyroid slowly destroys itself over your lifetime, and your immune system weakens over that time period.

I also lost my parents when I was young. You’re at a difficult age on your life, where it’s very easy to take the wrong path. Your father and your mother want the best for you, and you need to honour them by being the person they want you to be. Do it for them, and you’ll be happier with life and with yourself.

Same here, i was diagnosed with colon cancer the second of december, and i have been recieving chemo non stop since the 15th of january . Luckly for me its working, it has decreased many Centimeters, and as far as i know, the metastasis are decreasing too, with luck i wil be operated soon. As you said i would love to see a video about how chemo works, a know a bit due to my degree but i would love to see how they explain it. To end all i can say is be strong and keep fighting friend. we both can do this, and remember, a great portion of this battle take place in our mind. Good luck. P.S. Sorry for the broken english

Hoping and praying it removes the cancer completely. Given enough time, humanity will eventually solve all our problems, so even if we don't have the solutions now, I'm sure we will someday.
