摘要:
Provided are small-molecule Trp-p8 modulators, including Trp-p8 agonists and Trp-p8 antagonists, and compositions comprising small-molecule Trp-p8 agonists as well as methods for identifying and characterizing novel small-molecule Trp-p8 modulators and methods for decreasing viability and/or inhibiting growth of Trp-p8 expressing cells, methods for activating Trp-p8-mediated cation influx, methods for stimulating apoptosis and/or necrosis, and related methods for the treatment of diseases, including cancers such as lung, breast, colon, and/or prostate cancers as well as other diseases, such as benign prostatic hyperplasia, that are associated with Trp-p8 expression.
摘要:
Provided are alternative reading frame (ARF) polypeptides as well as antigen presenting cell (APC) and dendritic cell (DC) based compositions that comprise ARF polypeptides. ARF polypeptides and ARF polypeptide-based compositions are useful in the treatment of cancer and infectious disease.
摘要:
Disclosed are therapeutic compositions and methods for inducing cytotoxic T cell responses in vitro and in vivo. The therapeutic compositions consist of antigen presenting cells activated by contact with a polypeptide complex constructed by joining together a dendritic cell-binding protein and a polypeptide antigen. Also disclosed are expression vectors and systems for producing the polypeptide complexes.

摘要:
Disclosed are immunostimulatory fusion proteins and methods for generating protective DC-induced, T cell-mediated immune responses in vitro and in vivo. The immunostimulatory fusion proteins comprise a polypeptide antigen component and an immunostimulatory component derived from the intracellular domain of the HER-2 protein. Also disclosed are immunostimulatory compositions comprising dendritic cells pulsed with such an immunostimulatory fusion protein and methods for immunotherapy using the compositions.
摘要:
Anti-human major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II, HLA-DR-specific monoclonal antibodies which can induce apoptosis of HLA-DR positive cells are disclosed. The antibodies are used to specifically eliminate HLA-DR antigen positive tumor cells by cross-linking of HLA-DR. Also disclosed are methods for treating cancer using such antibodies, and compositions containing them.
