The immunogenicity of viral oncoproteins has been established beyond doubt. Cytotoxic T lymphocytes directed against viral oncogene products can eradicate large established tumor masses. This stage has not yet been reached for cellular oncogene and tumor suppressor gene products, but T cells have be
Cancer cells often contain mutations that lead to the loss of retinoblastoma tumor suppressor (Rb) function and the activation of E2F-dependent transcription. As a result, proliferation is deregulated, and sensitivity to apoptotic stimuli is increased. In cell culture studies, the transcription fact
