Previous studies have shown that self-antigens overexpressed in malignant tissue can provide a basis for a tumorspecific immune response. The mucin MUC2 is strongly overexpressed in all mucinous tumors of colon, breast, ovary and pancreas. In the corresponding normal tissue it is either not expresse
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
Identification of the immunogenic proteins that induce Chlamydia trachomatis (CT)-specific T cell responses is crucial to the development of protective vaccines and understanding the mechanisms of chlamydia-induced pathology. To characterize the targets of the human T cell response we have used chla
