The study of tumor immunology has led to many innovative therapeutic strategies for the treatment of melanoma. The strategies are primarily dependent on melanoma-associated antigen peptide vaccination or T-cell-based therapy. These immunotherapies are totally reliant on proper copresentation of huma
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
