Not down syndrome or cancer that’s for sure

Answer:

Down Syndrome wouldn't cause this.

Cancer is where your blood cells are involved so no.

Duchenne muscular dystrophy is where your limbs are effected so no.

Cystic fibrosis affects the cells that produce mucus, sweat, and digestive juices. It causes these fluids to become thick and sticky. They then plug up tubes, ducts, and passageways.

Symptoms vary and can include cough, repeated lung infections, inability to gain weight, and fatty stools.

So yes Cystic fibrosis is possibly the answer

BUT

Muscular dystrophy can also cause this as your muscles weaken over time. But most likely its Cystic fibrosis

A mechanism by which cancer cells can evade an immune response involves an alteration in the amount of MIC on the cell surface b
kvasek [131]

Answer:

cleavage of MIC at the cell surface by a protease

Explanation:

The immune system refers to a complex network of cells and proteins that function to eliminate potentially tumorigenic cells on a daily basis. However, cancer cells show mechanisms in order to escape immune responses. MHC class I chain-related proteins A and B (MICA and MICB) are expressed in normal and tumorigenic cells where they act as ligands of the NKG2D receptor. The expression level of these proteins (MICA and MICB) is finely regulated by the activity of metalloproteinases (i.e., by protease-mediated cleavage), but this mechanism is altered in cancer cells. Recently, drug therapies that stimulate NKG2D mediated tumor destruction by reducing the cleavage of MICA and MICB from the surface of cancer cells have been developed.
