Non-small-cell lung cancers (NSCLC) are often infiltrated by T lymphocytes. It is postulated that the presence of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) reflects a local host immune response against autologous tumors. To identify the nature of NSCLC TIL, we have characterized the molecular structure o

## Abstract Expression of Tโcellโreceptor (TCR) Vฮฑ and Vฮฒ genes in tumorโinfiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) of 29 patients, 15 melanomas and 14 malignant glial tumors (glioma and medulloblastoma), was investigated. The identification and propagation of T cells with antiโtumor reactivity is crucial to
Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TlL) freshly obtained from human malignant melanomas as well as the same TIL grown in the presence of interleukin 2 (IL2) were studied for gene expression of the T-cell receptor (TCR) variable P regions (VP). To perform the TCR-VP analysis, total RNA was isolated fro
## Renal-cell carcinoma (RCC ) is one of the human cancers which respond best to immunotherapy. To better characterize the mechanism of the immune response in RCC, we analyzed the T-cell receptor (TCR) p-chain repertoire in primary RCC, metastases and paired peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) from
