## Abstract Antibodyβdependent cellβmediated cytotoxic assays have been used to examine antigens on human melanoma cells obtained either directly from patients or from longβterm melanoma cell lines. A panel of melanoma antisera was selected from human subjects which could be shown not to have signi

## Abstract Trifunctional antibodies are able to redirect T cells and FcΞ³ receptor^+^ accessory immune cells to tumor targets. The simultaneous activation of these different classes of effector cells results in efficient killing of the tumor cells by different mechanisms such as phagocytosis and pe
## Abstract Sera from melanoma patients, healthy donors, pregnant women and patients with types of tumors other than melanoma were tested on various melanoma lines as well as on a cultured brain tumor and adult skin fibroblasts, using a microimmune adherence test. Positive reactions against all cel
The adoptive transfer of tumor-specific cytotoxic T cells (CTL) offers a promising perspective in cancer immunotherapy. However, the ex vivo-generated T lymphocytes are mostly IL-2-dependent. Here we explored the possibility of circumventing the requirement for IL-2, known for severe side effects in
We generated 3 murine monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) specific for ganglioside lactones by immunizing C3H/HeN mice with purified lactones adsorbed to Salmonella minnesota followed by fusion with mouse myeloma cells. The use of a wide variety of glycolipids, including ganglioside lactones, enabled the p
