There are two occasions in human life, where foreign object able to grow in human body and body immune system do not kill that alien that grow in the body: 1) during pregnancy (2) cancer
Midkine is the cytokine that expressed massively during the 2nd period of trimester (midkine was named that way bcoz "mid" imply the middle of the trimester).
So cancer might be utilizing this cytokine and escape body immune surveillance.
