Paraneoplastic Autoimmune Reactions

  • Chapter
Autoimmune Reactions

Part of the book series: Contemporary Immunology ((CONTIM))

Abstract

The purpose of this chapter is to describe inflammatory and autoimmune reactions that are secondary to the development of cancer. In some cases, it is believed that inflammatory and autoimmune reactions result from interactions between substances and cells of the immune responses that are directed against tumor cells but cross react with normal tissues.
