摘要:
Provided are engineered primary blood and monocyte-derived dendritic cells, wherein the dendritic cell expresses a functional Tax protein from a T cell leukemia virus, and methods of making and using the same.
摘要:
The present application relates to polypeptides derived from the soluble part of the glycoprotein of the enveloped virus of Primate T-cell leukemia virus (PTLV), or fragments or variants thereof named receptor binding domain ligands (RBD) selected for their ability to bind specifically to the nutrient transporter GLUT1.
摘要:
The determination of the nucleotide sequence of HIV-1 DNA; identification, isolation and expression of HIV-1 DNA sequences which encode immunoreactive polypeptides by recombinant DNA methods and production of viral RNA are disclosed. Such polypeptides can be employed in immunoassays to detect HIV-1.

摘要:
The subject of the present invention is a method of obtaining purified BLV gp51 antigen as well as a novel ELISA assay using said antigen. The present invention is useful in the diagnosis of enzootic leukaemia in cattle.
摘要:
Compositions and methods for the therapy and diagnosis of cancer, particularly breast cancer, are disclosed. Illustrative compositions comprise one or more breast tumor polypeptides, immunogenic portions thereof, polynucleotides that encode such polypeptides, antigen presenting cell that expresses such polypeptides, and T cells that are specific for cells expressing such polypeptides. The disclosed compositions are useful, for example, in the diagnosis, prevention and/or treatment of diseases, particularly breast cancer.
摘要:
The present invention relates to fusion peptides which exhibit potent anti-retroviral activity. The fusion peptides of the invention comprise a macromolecular carrier group fused to a gp41-derived DP178 (SEQ ID NO:1) peptide corresponding to amino acids 638 to 673 of the HIV-1LA1 gp41 protein, or fragments, analogs or homologs of DP178. The invention further relates to the uses of such fusion peptides as inhibitory of human and non-human retroviral, especially HIV, transmission to uninfected cells.

摘要:
The present invention provides a peptide having HTLV-I-specific CTL-inducing activity that can induce cytotoxic T cells (CTL) having anti-tumor effect to human T cell leukemia virus-I (HTLV-I) tumor such as adult T-cell leukemia (ATL); a vaccine to induce immune response by using these; a diagnostic agent to examine immune function or the like. By investigating cellular immune response of ATL patient having obtained complete remission after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) from a HLA-identical sibling donor, HTLV-I-specific CTLs were induced only to HLA-A2 restricted Tax301-309 epitope that have proliferated actively by responding to auto-HTLV-I infected T cells constructed in vitro before HSCT, in the culture solution of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) of post-HSCT ATL patient. This suggests that this epitope was strongly expressed in the patient body suggesting that the epitope is useful as vaccine antigen.
