Non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLC) are often infiltrated by T lymphocytes. It is postulated that the presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) reflects a local host immune response against autologous tumors. To identify the nature of NSCLC TIL, we have characterized the molecular structure o
Melanoma and renal-cell carcinoma (RCC) are generally consided to be relatively immunogenic tumor types in humans. In the case of melanoma, many major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I-restricted tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (Cn) have been isolated from either tumorinfiltrating lymp
Fresh suspensions of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) from 16 patients with squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (SCCHN) were examined for T-cell markers including CD4 (helper-inducer), CD8 (cytotoxic-suppressor), natural killer (NK) cell, and activation surface markers using monoclonal
## Abstract Expression of Tβcellβreceptor (TCR) VΞ± and VΞ² genes in tumorβinfiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) of 29 patients, 15 melanomas and 14 malignant glial tumors (glioma and medulloblastoma), was investigated. The identification and propagation of T cells with antiβtumor reactivity is crucial to
To see whether different antigens expressed by the same tumor are recognized by distinct T-cell receptors (TCR), we used cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) lines known to lyse in vitro the syngeneic BALB/c adenocarcinoma C-26. Four of these CD3+ CD8+ lines showed 4 different patterns of lysis on a panel o
