Detailed explanation-1: -Your immune system is your body’s defense against infections and other harmful invaders. Without it, you would constantly get sick from bacteria or viruses.
Detailed explanation-2: -Your immune system plays a vital role in maintaining your health. Although some cancers are caused by genetic mutations, some other factors like old age and a weakened immune system can also play a significant role in causing the disease.
Detailed explanation-3: -A new study describes how immune response designed to scramble viral DNA can scramble human DNA as well, sometimes in ways that cause cancer.
