Normal ovarian surface epithelial label-retaining cells exhibit stem/progenitor cell characteristics.

abstract：:Recent advances in our understanding of the immune response are allowing for the logical design of new approaches to cancer immunization. One area of interest is the development of new immune adjuvants. Immunostimulatory oligodeoxynucleotides containing the CpG motif (CpG ODN) can induce production of a wide variety o...
