Markers that T-lymphocytes use to recognize and destroy foreign or abnormal cells are not well-expressed by cancer cells, thus allowing them to avoid elimination by the immune system [2].

This is done through effective surveillance and elimination of foreign substances and abnormal self cells from the body.
