## HLA-G: expression in human keratinocytes in vitro and in human skin in vivo* Classical, polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I molecules are expressed on most nucleated cells.They present peptides at the cell surface and, thus, enable the immune system to scan peptides for their a
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
MART-1/MelanA and Pmel17/gp100 are melanoma-associated antigens (MAAs) that can be recognized by tumorinfiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) capable of mediating successful adoptive therapy in vivo. Analysis of melanoma cell lines in vitro has demonstrated that heterogeneous antigen expression in the conte
Consumption of soy products has been linked to a reduced mortality and morbidity from a number of cancers. Genistein, one of the principal soy isoflavones, has been shown to inhibit the growth of a number of tumour cell lines in vitro; however, a role of genistein in retarding tumour growth in vivo
