Coloured SEM of lymphocytes attacking cancer cell
Cancer cell death. Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) showing killer T-lymphocytes (orange) inducing a cancer cell (mauve) to undergo Programmed Cell Death (PCD). Mauve vesicles, or apoptotic bodies emerging from the cancer cell indicate PCD (known as apoptosis). Killer T-lymphocytes are part of the bodys immune response system. They are programmed to seek out, attach themselves and kill cancer cells, usually using chemicals. In this case the lymphocytes have released a chemical which specifically induces apoptosis in the cancer cell. Apoptosis is a natural method of cell death which is being used as a potential treatment for cancer

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the incredible power of our body's immune system in its relentless battle against cancer. In this Coloured Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM), we witness a mesmerizing scene of lymphocytes, specifically killer T-lymphocytes, launching an attack on a cancer cell. The vibrant orange killer T-lymphocytes are seen engaging with the mauve-colored cancer cell, inducing a process known as Programmed Cell Death (PCD). The emergence of mauve vesicles or apoptotic bodies from the cancer cell signifies that PCD, also referred to as apoptosis, is taking place. Apoptosis is a natural mechanism through which cells self-destruct and is now being explored as a potential treatment for cancer. These remarkable lymphocytes are part of our body's intricate defense system against diseases. They possess the ability to seek out and attach themselves to malignant cells like these cancerous ones. By releasing specific chemicals into their targets, they trigger apoptosis in the affected cells. This image serves as a powerful reminder of both the complexity and resilience of our immune response system when faced with such formidable adversaries like cancer. It highlights ongoing scientific advancements aimed at harnessing apoptosis as an innovative approach to combat this devastating disease. Photo credit: Science Photo Library
