Abstract excerpt
Studies in mice have shown that CD70 on dendritic cells (DCs) is sufficient to convert T-cell tolerance into immunity and hence induce anti-tumour immune responses. Therefore, it is important to investigate (i) optimal stimuli to induce CD70 on human monocyte-derived DCs (MoDCs), which are widely used for tumour immunotherapy, and (ii) the role of CD70 in functional differentiation of naive CD4(+) and CD8(+) T...
