Blockade of the PD-1 pathway enhances the efficacy of adoptive cell therapy against cancer.

abstract：:Vaccines designed to abrogate the tolerance of tumor self-antigens and amplify cytotoxic CD8+ T cells (CTLs) have promise for the treatment of cancer. Type I natural killer (NKT) cells have attracted considerable interest in the cancer therapy field. In the current study, we have exploited the unique ability of NKT ce...
