The mechanisms accounting for T cell depletion in AIDS patients are not yet fully understood, nor are the roles of host factors in HIV pathogenesis. We show here that an ongoing humoral immune response to HIV gp120 can sensitize non-infected cells towards apoptosis. Thus, i.v. injection of 1 ? g rec
## Abstract The aim of this study was to investigate whether depletion of CD4^+^CD25^+^ regulatory T cells (Treg) from melanoma patients affects immune responses against tumors. By application of recombinant ILβ2βdiphteria toxin fusion protein, also known as ONTAK, we were able to significantly red
