Expression of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I antigens was induced in eight out of nine freshly prepared tumor cell suspensions by exposure to interferon (IFN gamma) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF alpha) in vitro. The untreated, class-I-antigen-negative, and the treated, antigen-posit

## Abstract Lymphocytes prepared from the blood, tumour‐draining lymph node and tumour were tested for immune reactivity with freshly isolated autologous tumour cells from biopsies. Reactivity was assessed by the autologous tumour stimulation assay and by lymphocytotoxicity. Activity was found in 6
## Abstract To identify tumor‐associated antigens as putative targets for developing immunotherapies against prostate cancer, we investigated the ability of T cells derived from the peripheral blood lymphocytes of prostate cancer patients to recognize autologous tumor cells. The technical challenge
## Abstract In this study we investigated whether the presence of specific populations of tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in diagnostic primary melanoma biopsies are related to outcome in clinically stage II melanoma patients. Moreover, we investigated whether the presence of TILs correlates
