## Abstract Ten human patients with malignant melanoma were followed with respect to two __in vitro__ parameters of tumor immunity, the ability of the patients' blood lymphocytes to destroy cultivated melanoma cells, and the ability of the patients' sera to block such destruction, and with respect
Work in animal models has suggested that interactions of members of the 87 receptor family (e.g., 87-I, 87-2) on tumor cells with their ligands CD28 and CTLA-4 on cytotoxic T cells (CTL) are important for the induction of anti-tumor immunity against malignant melanoma (MM). To determine whether thes
