In vitro priming of cytotoxic T lymphocytes against poorly immunogenic epitopes by engineered antigen-presenting cells.

abstract：:The protooncogene HER2/neu encodes a 185-kDa transmembrane protein with extensive homology to the epidermal growth factor receptor. It is overexpressed in several human cancers of epithelial origin, such as pancreatic cancer. Previously, we demonstrated that cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) derived from breast, ovarian, ...
