Injection of IL-12 gene-transduced dendritic cells into mouse liver tumor lesions activates both innate and acquired immunity.

abstract：:Based on observations that DBA/2 mice develop a highly specific response towards an HLA-Cw3-derived epitope, consisting entirely of CD8+CD62L-Vbeta10+ cells, we have established an in vivo mouse model for screening a variety of immunization approaches. Responder cells were readily detectable in small samples of the pe...
