Abstrakt: |
Mammaglobin-A is exclusively expressed by breast cancer cells. Thus, mammaglobin-A-specific T cell immune responses may be useful for the design of new breast cancer-specific immunotherapies. We show herein that CD8+ T cells generated against recombinant mammaglobin-A-pulsed dendritic cells display a marked cytotoxic activity against mammaglobin-A-positive breast cancer cell lines. This study indicates the immunotherapeutic potential of this novel antigen for the treatment of breast cancer. |
