Intercettare il nemico, identificarlo e correre a lanciare l’allarme:

fanno questo, in sostanza, le cellule dendritiche, uno dei piu importanti sistemi radar che l’immunita ha a disposizione per mettere a punto efficaci e potenti difese contro eventuali insulti che dall’esterno o dall’interno possono compromettere la salute dell’organismo.

October 2011: Nobel-Prize winner used his dendritic cell therapy to treat his own cancer

Medical Center Cologne Ralph Steinman tested Nobel-Prize winning research on himself.
Reuters profiled Steinman's efforts to treat his own pancreatic cancer using his Nobel Prize-winning dendritic cell therapy.
Steinman on Oct. 3 received the 2011 Nobel Prize in medicine for his immunology research and his 1973 discovery of dendritic cells , which allowed for the creation of the first therapeutic cancer vaccine.

However, just three days prior to receiving the award, Steinman died after a four-and-a-half-year battle with pancreatic cancer. In an effort to beat his own cancer and
develop a cure for others, Steinman opted to receive all available conventional therapies, including chemotherapy, and unproven treatments, such as an experimental melanoma vaccine and the dendritic cell therapy he had helped develop.

For the dendritic cell therapy, Steinman received eight to nine doses of dendritic cells made from his own blood and blood precursor cells. In the end, Steinman lived more than three years longer than expected.
Although colleagues say it is impossible to determine which treatments prolonged his life, Steinman himself believed it was the dendritic cell therapy, Reuters reports.

October 2011: Dendritic Cell Scientist Wins Nobel Prize!

Dendritic cell research got a boost when Ralph Steinman won the Nobel Prize for Physiology or Medicine. Sadly, Steinman did not live long enough to receive the Prize, he passed away just three days before the Nobel Prize was announced. In 1973 Ralph Steinman and Zanvil Cohn published the first paper describing the discovery of dendritic cells in the Journal of Experimental Medicine. Cohn died in 1993 at the age of 66.
In the paper Steinman and Cohn wrote, "morphological observations, both in vivo and in vitro, indicate that these novel cells can assume a variety of branching forms, and constantly extend and retract many fine cell processes. The term "dendritic" cell would thus be appropriate for this particular cell type."
Since then, Steinman’s research was focused on this cell type.Initially dendritic cells were not given the due attention by immunologists. But research in this area of immunobiology gained momentum by early 1990s.
Describing this "once neglected cell type," Jacques Banchereau and Ralph Steinman wrote in Nature, in 1998, "Dendritic cells in the periphery capture and process antigens, express lymphocyte co-stimulatory molecules, migrate to lymphoid organs and secrete cytokines to initiate immune responses. They (dendritic cells) not only activate lymphocytes, they also tolerize T cells to antigens that are innate to the body (self-antigens), thereby minimizing autoimmune reactions."

October 2011:This year's Nobel Laureates have revolutionized our understanding of the immune system by discovering key principles for its activation.

The discoveries that are awarded the 2011 Nobel Prize have provided novel insights into the activation and regulation of our immune system. They have made possible the development of new methods for preventing and treating disease, for instance with improved vaccines against infections and in attempts to stimulate the immune system to attack tumors.

These discoveries also help us understand why the immune system can attack our own tissues, thus providing clues for novel treatment of inflammatory diseases. Ralph Steinman discovered, in 1973, a new cell type that he called the dendritic cell.

He speculated that it could be important in the immune system restoration and went on to test whether dendritic cells could activate T cells, a cell type that has a key role in adaptive immunity and develops an immunologic memory against many different substances.

Further studies by Steinman and other scientists went on to address the question of how the adaptive immune system decides whether or not it should be activated when encountering various substances.

Signals arising from the innate immune response and sensed by dendritic cells were shown to control T cell activation. This makes it possible for the immune system to react towards pathogenic microorganisms while avoiding an attack on the body's own endogenous molecules. Read more...

October 2011: U.S. Panel Says No to Prostate Screening for Healthy Men!
New York Times

Healthy men should no longer receive a P.S.A. blood test to screen for prostate cancer because the test does not save lives over all and often leads to more tests and treatments that needlessly cause pain, impotence and incontinence in many, a key government health panel has decided.

September 2011: Radio interview with Dr. Erik Peper about
"Fighting Cancer: A Nontoxic Approach to Treatment"

Medical Center Cologne Nontoxic Cancer Treatment Approach - The Gorter Model is described as an integrative, nontoxic approach to cancer treatment that mobilizes the immune system.

It was developed by Robert Gorter, a medical doctor, who recovered from cancer by using nontoxic treatment and no chemotherapy or radiation. Dr. Gorter based his model on self-experience, extensive research and decades of clinical practice.

Fighting Cancer presents an overview of the Gorter Model, the research behind it and ways to natural immune restoration.

September 2011: New York Times Article about HIPEC!

Immune restoration has always been the focus point of the cancer therapies offered at MCC. A recent article in the New York Times refers to a study which shows that it is usually wrong in medicine to take for granted that when something might be good for you, more is better!

One good example is the aggressive application of heated chemotherapy during an abdominal operation (HIPEC) with the assumption that one could kill the very last cancer cell which might have been left by the surgeon. Clear benefit has never been shown but for sure a 8% death rate directly due to the complications of HIPEC.

Also, not that long ago, in the 1960's and early 1970's, women with breast cancer underwent not only routinely radical mastectomy and removal of underlying musculature but also complete resection of all lymph nodes.

July 2011:Dr. Robert Gorter speaks about the cancer treatment protocol at MCC in The Gary Null Show

Dr. Gorter talks about the immune restoration importance in the cancer treatment. To restore the immune system of cancer patiets, Gorter Model includes a regimen of hyperthermia modelities, dendritic cell therapy, mistletoe injections, Vitamin C, nutrients and antioxidant therapies and life style changes.
His recent book “Fighting Cancer: A Nontoxic Approach to Treatment” , co-written with Dr. Erik Peper, who was treated with the Gorter Model, is a thorough review of this novel cancer treatment and provides insights on adopting life style practices to improve and maintain high immune function.
Dr. Erik Peper is an internationally recognized expert in holistic health, stress management and biofeedback. He has written many health articles for publications such as Men’s Health, Shape, Women’s Health, and the San Francisco Chronicle. Dr. Peper was diagnosed with melanoma and after conventional treatment and recurrence, was treated by Dr. Gorter with the Gorter Model.
