Identification and characterization of novel human glioma-specific peptides to potentiate tumor-specific gene delivery.

abstract：:DNA vaccination is an attractive approach for tumor immunotherapy because of its stability and simplicity of delivery. Advances demonstrate that helper T cell responses play a critical role in initiating immune responses. The aim of the current study is to test whether targeting HPV-16 E7 to the endosomal/lysosomal co...
