The Design
About Cancer Assassin Léaráid
Rinne an t-ealaíontóir iarracht portráid a chruthú den nóiméad drámatúil a sháraíonn greim báis cille Natural Killer T cosaintí cille ailse, ag meabhrú nóiméad a theastaíonn ón gcine daonna. Is assassins ailse iad cealla T Killer Nádúrtha Cíteatocsaineacha a spreagann cealla ailse chun bás cille cláraithe ar a dtugtar apoptóis. Aithníonn cealla nádúrtha Killer T suíomhanna ar leith ar dhromchla cealla ailse ar a dtugtar antaiginí, ceangailfidh siad leo, agus scaoileann siad próitéiní bithcheimiceacha a fhoirmíonn pores i membrane na cille ailse agus a spreagann go sonrach an cill ailse a scriosadh.
