Despite the constant surveillance of immune cells, tumour cells can still evade the immune response. Unravelling the interactions of T cells and B cells with tumour cells can shed light on tumour evasion. Extensive research is focused on the mechanisms of activation of an immune response in T cells. However, it is known that detection events, i.e., physical contact between individual surveying T cells and tumour cells, don’t necessarily lead to such activation. Little is known about physical interactions between T cells and tumour cells that do not end in activation. Here I suggest focusing on these detection-without activation events. In these cases, how is the detection information…
