Aberrant proteins encoded from genes altered in tumors drive cancer development and may also be therapeutic targets. Here we derived a comprehensive gene-alteration profile of lung cancer cell lines. We tested 17 genes in a panel of 88 lung cancer cell lines and found the rates of alteration to be h
NF-kappaB/Rel transcription factors have been implicated in the differentiation of monocytes to either dendritic cells (DCs) or macrophages, as well as in the maturation of DCs from antigen-processing to antigen-presenting cells. Recent studies of the expression pattern of Rel proteins and their inh
## Abstract Dendritic cells (DCs) represent a subset of professional antigen presenting cell (APC) whose role is to elicit immune responses against harmful antigens. They have been used in DC vaccines to stimulate the immune system to kill cancer cells. However, successes in clinical trials have be
## Abstract The CD40‐ligand (CD40L) is a key molecule for the activation of dendritic cells (DCs), followed by the induction of DC maturation and cytokine production. Here we found that DC infected with adenovirus vector encoding human CD40L (CD40L‐DC) displayed significantly higher levels of immun
