Tumor Antigens Recognized by T Cells and Antibodies

Tumor Antigens Recognized by T Cells and Antibodies provides a comprehensive overview of the molecular nature of tumor antigens that can be recognized by antibodies, helper T lymphocytes, and cytotoxic T lymphocytes. It reviews currently identified tumor antigens recognized by helper CD4 T cells in humans, describes a powerful, recently developed technology, SEREX, that has led to the identification of tumor antigens, and covers strategies for improving the quality/avidity of the CTL response. With contributions from a host of international experts in the field, this book provides invaluable information for clinicians and researchers with an interest in cancer immunotherapy.
