- GalCer ligands serve as tiny dock masters in our immune system, helping antigen - presenting cells attract and bind with iNKT cells so they can be activated to kill cancerous cells or fight off pathogens and other foreign invaders.

In addition to being the first line of defense against pathogenic attack, the immune system seeks out aberrant cells within the body that may become cancerous.

However, cancerous tumors are formed when the immune system is unable to remove these diseased cells.

These proteins, called antigens, serve as a signal to the immune system that a diseased or cancerous cell is present and needs to be eliminated.
