"肿瘤与免疫是一门免疫学和肿瘤学相互渗透，结合的免疫学的分支学科，阐述肿瘤的发生、发展和转移机制与机体免疫系统的相互关系，以及如何应用免疫学原理干预，达到肿瘤的防治；同时介绍近期肿瘤免疫学的基础研究进展和临床应用概况。 该课程的教学目的是使学生了解肿瘤与机体免疫系统的相互关系，指导相关学科的基础研究和临床应用。着重介绍肿瘤抗原的免疫生物学特性以及如何应用免疫学原理进行干预，提高肿瘤诊断率和肿瘤治疗效果。肿瘤与免疫这门课程主要包括一下九章内容：第一章：肿瘤抗原的免疫生物学性状；第二章：肿瘤抗原的分类和特性；第三章：肿瘤抗原的鉴定和制备；第四章：机体抗肿瘤的免疫效应机制；第五章：免疫监视理论及肿瘤逃逸免疫监视的机制；第六章：肿瘤标志物与肿瘤诊断的临床应用；第七章：肿瘤免疫疗法；第八章：肿瘤基因疗法；第九章：肿瘤免疫学相关技术介绍。为了训练学生的动手操作能力，该课程还开设了以下两个实验，一、免疫活性细胞测定（LAK细胞）；二、酶联免疫吸附实验（CEA含量测定）。"

"Tumor and Immunity is a branch of immunology which combines immunology and oncology. This course describes the relationships between tumor occurrence, development and metastasis mechanisms and host immune system., and how to interfere, prevent and treat tumor through the application of principles of immunology. In addition, this course introduces the basic research development of Tumor Immunology and clinical application overview at present. .This course’s education aims at understanding the relationships between tumor and immune system and guiding related discipline’s basic research and clinical application. We stress on the introduction of the immune biological properties of tumor antigens, and how to increase the tumor diagnosis and therapy by immune interfering.This course includes nine chapters. Chapter 1 is immune biological characteristics of tumor antigens; Chapter 2 is the classification and properties of tumor antigens; Chapter 3 is the identification of tumor antigens; Chapter 4 is the effector mechanisms of immune system to tumor; Chapter 5 is immune surveillance theory and the tumor evasion mechanisms of immune; Chapter 6 is the clinical application of the tumor markers and tumor diagnosis; Chapter 7 is immunotherapy for tumor; Chapter 8 is genetherapy for tumor; Chapter 9 is relevant technologies of tumor immunology. In addition, This course also arranges two experiments for students. One is the lymphokine-activated killer cells (LAK cell) activity assay, the other is that CEA content in serum is determined by using enzyme linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA)."
