Tumor MHC class I expression improves the prognostic value of T-cell density in resected colorectal liver metastases.

abstract：:Many immunotherapeutic approaches under development rely on T-cell recognition of cancer-derived peptides bound to human leukocyte antigen molecules on the cell surface. Direct experimental demonstration that such peptides are processed and bound is currently challenging. Here, we describe a method that meets this cha...
