Abstract:
The present invention relates to synthetic antigen-presenting matrices, their methods of making and their methods of use. One such matrix is cells that have been transfected to produce MHC antigen-presenting molecules and assisting molecules such as co-stimulatory molecules. The matrices can be used to activate CD8null T-cells to produce cytokines and become cytotoxic.
Abstract:
Materials and methods for activating T lymphocytes with specificity for particular antigenic peptides are described, as well as the use of activated T lymphocytes in vitro for the treatment of a variety of disease conditions. In particular, a method for producing a synthetic antigen presenting cell line for activating T lymphocytes to a specific peptide is described.
