Abstract excerpt
We have identified an antigen recognized on a large cell carcinoma of the lung by tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL). The antigenic peptide is encoded by a mutated alpha-actinin-4 gene and presented by human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A2. Using HLA-A2-peptide tetramers, we have derived from patient peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) and autologous tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) several mutated...
