Masuyama Test

The average adult produces around 5,000 cancerous cells every day. To combat these cancerous cells, your immune system produces Natural Killer cells. These are your body’s own first responders, and act as the ultimate solution in keeping cancer cells from developing and spreading further. Nature killer cells are your body’s first line of defense.






Sample collection
In order to determine how well your body can defend itself against dangerous abnormal cells, Masuyama Test measures activity in a core part of your immune system: the Natural Killer cell. In the first commercially available test of its kind, we only need to draw 4 ml of fresh blood, making the procedure simple and affordable.


 
Result interpretation
  • The comprehensive immunity status of this cancer patient is in the LOWEST category.
  • Neutrophil/Lymphocyte ratio is poor indicate that the patient has a highly inflammation cell more than cancer prevention cell which can be fixed but NK cell transplantation. 
  • This data also confirms with low lymphocyte cell count.
  • High CD4/CD8 ration indicates the patient has a high T helper cell than cytotoxic T cell. High T helper cell ratio does not benefit from cancer patient due to T helper cell reduce cancer cytotoxicity function of cytotoxic T cell and NK cell. 
  • The patient has low NK cell and NKG2D positive cell means the patient has low NK cell and cancer-specific NK cell and cytotoxic T cell. However, if his NK activity is particularly good, it means patient NK cell still active to secret interferon-gramma.
NK cell test and treatment
When the level of NK activity is low, NK cells have a much decrease potency to attack cancer cells. Thus, low NK activity is a risk factor for the development of variety of cancers.

If your immune system needs a boost, NK therapy solutions using highly active NK cells will give your body the recharge it needs. Therapeutic NK cells can be derived from various sources, including peripheral or cord blood cells, stem cells.
