A new HLA-class-I altered phenotype is described in melanoma. This phenotype is the result of a combination of HLA-B-locus down-regulation and HLA-haplotype loss. The alteration was found in 2 melanoma cell lines generated from 2 patients; one was derived from an in vivo lesion (FM37) and the other
Uveal melanoma is the most common primary intra-ocular tumor in adults and has a high mortality rate due to liver metastases, for which no effective treatment is available. To investigate whether immunotherapy might be feasible in uveal melanoma, the HLA class I surface expression of 6 uveal melanom
Molecular characterization of HLA-class-I expression was investigated in human tumor cell lines at the protein and mRNA levels using locus-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) and probes. Some cell lines exhibited a differential expression of HLA-A and HLA-B products and also showed differences in
