A novel human HER2-derived peptide homologous to the mouse K(d)-restricted tumor rejection antigen can induce HLA-A24-restricted cytotoxic T lymphocytes in ovarian cancer patients and healthy individuals.

abstract：:In the homeostasis of the immune system regulatory cells play a major role. Removal of one group of regulatory cells, the CD25(+)CD4(+) T cells, leads to autoimmune manifestations in experimental animal models, and reintroduction of this population prevents disease. This study addresses the role of such regulatory T c...
