Dendritic cells (DCs) are "professional" antigen-presenting cells capable of stimulating T-cell proliferation and cytotoxicity when loaded with and presenting specific antigens, including tumor antigens. We demonstrated the stimulation of an autologous cytotoxic T-cell response elicited by DC loaded

In order to maintain in vivo anti-tumor efficacy of antigen (Ag)-specific T cells in adoptive immunotherapy for a prolonged period, we constructed a fusion protein (OVA/IL-2) containing ovalbumin (OVA) as a model tumor Ag, covalently linked to murine interleukin-2 (IL-2). The OVA/IL-2 protein produc
Mechanisms controlling the Th1/Th2 phenotype of a primary immune response are often discussed assuming that the generation of Th1 and Th2 cells from the common CD4 + precursor T helper (pTh) involves an interaction of this pTh cell with an antigen-presenting cell (APC) in the form of a two-cell inte
