Rapid expansion of cytomegalovirus–specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes by artificial antigen-presenting cells expressing a single HLA allele
17 Jun 2003
Abstract excerpt
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a major threat in patients undergoing allogeneic bone marrow transplantation. The adoptive transfer of CMV-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) expanded from the blood of CMV-seropositive donors has been shown to effectively control CMV infection. However, the requirement for safe and effective antigen-presenting cells (APCs) for each patient precludes broad applicability of this...
