Abstract

The connections between autoimmunization and carcinogenesis have been observed in many patients' cases for numerous years. Various autoimmune diseases precede the diagnosis of neoplasm, however the mechanisms of autoimmunization may also be useful in anti-cancer defence. This review presents the analysis of links between the mentioned processes and their possible application in modern anti-neoplasmatic immunotherapy.

Keywords: autoimmunization; cancer; paraneoplastic syndrome.
