Checkpoint blockade cancer immunotherapy targets tumour-specific mutant antigens
The immune system influences the fate of developing cancers by not only functioning as a tumour promoter that facilitates cellular transformation, promotes tumour growth and scu...
Tumor Rejection After Direct Costimulation of CD8 <sup>+</sup> T Cells by B7-Transfected Melanoma Cells
A variety of tumors are potentially immunogenic but do not stimulate an effective anti-tumor immune response in vivo. Tumors may be capable of delivering antigen-specific signal...
CD8<sup>+</sup> cytotoxic T lymphocytes in cancer immunotherapy: A review
Abstract CD8 + cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) are preferred immune cells for targeting cancer. During cancer progression, CTLs encounter dysfunction and exhaustion due to immune...
Biologic activity of cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 antibody blockade in previously vaccinated metastatic melanoma and ovarian carcinoma patients
A large number of cancer-associated gene products evoke immune recognition, but host reactions rarely impede disease progression. The weak immunogenicity of nascent tumors contr...
CTLA-4 blockade synergizes with tumor-derived granulocyte– macrophage colony-stimulating factor for treatment of an experimental mammary carcinoma
Generation of a T cell-mediated antitumor response depends on T cell receptor engagement by major histocompatibility complex/antigen as well as CD28 ligation by B7. CTLA-4 is a ...
