A novel fusion suicide gene yeast CDglyTK plays a role in radio-gene therapy of nasopharyngeal carcinoma.

abstract：:Earlier, we reported an association of A-kinase anchor protein 4 (AKAP4) expression in cervical cancer patient specimens, indicating its implications as an immunotherapeutic target. In this study, we investigated the possible role of AKAP4 in cervical carcinogenesis. AKAP4 messenger RNA and protein expression was asse...

One hypothesis is that there is insufficient stimulation of T-cell responses due to ineffective antigen presentation. An approach to overcome these deficiencies is to modify tumor cells to express majo...
