In this paper, we propose and analyse a mathematical model for chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), a cancer of the blood. We model the interaction between naive T cells, effector T cells, and CML cancer cells in the body, using a system of ordinary differential equations which gives rates of change

## Abstract Human tumors frequently escape immune destruction, despite the presence of cyototoxic T cells (CTL) recognizing tumorβassociated antigens (TAA). We have previously shown that programmed death ligandβ1 (PDβL1), a recently identified ligand of the B7 superfamily, is expressed on murine tu
## Abstract As a means to increase the immunogenicity of tumor cells, we have developed a retroviral vector to transfect human B7, a molecule capable of delivering coβstimulatory signals to T cells. Three different tumors, a melanoma, an ovarian carcinoma and a myelomonocytic leukemia, were transfe
