T Cell Receptor-Like Recognition of Tumor In Vivo by Synthetic Antibody Fragment
20 Aug 2012
Abstract excerpt
A major difficulty in treating cancer is the inability to differentiate between normal and tumor cells. The immune system differentiates tumor from normal cells by T cell receptor (TCR) binding of tumor-associated peptides bound to Major Histocompatibility Complex (pMHC) molecules. The peptides, derived from the tumor-specific proteins, are presented by MHC proteins, which then serve as cancer markers. The TCR is...
