Abstract excerpt
We established and characterized a bank of 138 CMVpp65 peptide-specific T-cell (CMVpp65CTLs) lines from healthy marrow transplant donors who consented to their use for treatment of individuals other than their transplant recipient. CMVpp65CTL lines included 131 containing predominantly CD8+ T cells and 7 CD4+ T cells. CD8+ CMVpp65CTLs were specific for 1 to 3 epitopes each presented by one of only 34 of the 148...
