Abstract excerpt
Immunoediting of tumor-associated antigens occurs in response to immune pressure. We show that the mutation of residues within epitopes of HER-2/neu leads to the outgrowth of autochthonous tumors after immunizing HER-2/neu transgenic mice with Listeria monocytogenes therapeutic vaccines expressing fragments of HER-2/neu. Three of these vaccines target the extracellular domain (LmLLO-EC1, LmLLO-EC2, and...
