Ex Vivo Analysis of Human Antigen-Specific CD8+ T-Cell Responses: Quality Assessment of Fluorescent HLA-A2 Multimer and Interferon-γ ELISPOT Assays for Patient Immune Monitoring

Abstract excerpt

The authors developed a standardized approach for immune monitoring of antigen-specific CD8+ T cells within peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) that combines direct ex vivo analysis of Melan-A/MART-1 and influenza-specific CD8+ T cells with HLA-A2/peptide multimers and interferon-gamma ELISPOT assays. Here the authors assessed the quality of results obtained with 180 PBLs from healthy donors and melanoma...
