## Abstract ## Background Here we describe a novel DNA vaccine formulation that can enhance cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity through efficient gene delivery to dendritic cells (DCs) by mannose receptorβmediated endocytosis. ## Methods Ovalbumin (OVA) was selected as a model antigen for vacc

## Abstract DNA vaccines have emerged as an attractive approach to generate antigenβspecific Tβcell immune response. Nevertheless, the potency of DNA vaccines still needs to be improved for cancer immunotherapy. In this study, we explored whether functional linkage of a Th1βpolarizing chemokine, IP
Tumor cells frequently show a lack of surface class-I major histocompatibility complex (MHC) antigen expression. These molecules are key recognition structures for immune rejection of tumor cells and their absence at the surface of tumor cells could favor the progression of tumors. We have analyzed
