We have previously shown that naïve CD8+ T cells recognizing their cognate antigen within the liver are retained and undergo activation in situ, independent from lymphoid tissues. Intrahepatic primary T cell activation results in apoptosis and may play a crucial role in the ability of the liver to i
## Abstract DNA plasmids are potent inducers of long‐lasting antigen‐specific CTL responses. Little is known about the distribution of antigen‐specific CD8^+^ T cells in the lymphoid tissue and the non‐lymphoid tissue after DNA immunization. HBsAg‐specific CD8^+^ T cells in peripheral blood mononuc
## Abstract The identification of appropriate mouse models could be useful in carefully evaluating the actual role of the __in vivo__ development of antigen‐loss variants during antigen‐specific vaccine therapy of human tumors. In this study we investigated the level of efficacy of a MART‐1/Melan‐A
