Abstract excerpt
Cancer cells present neoantigens dominantly through MHC class I (MHCI) to drive tumor rejection through cytotoxic CD8+ T cells. There is growing recognition that a subset of tumors express MHC class II (MHCII), causing recognition of antigens by TCRs of CD4+ T cells that contribute to the antitumor response. We found that mouse BrafV600E-driven anaplastic thyroid cancers (ATCs) responded markedly to the RAF plus...
