    Imiquimod and S-27609 as adjuvants of DNA vaccination in a transgenic murine model of HER2/neu-positive mammary carcinoma

    DNA vaccination against HER-2/neu is an effective way to induce an immune response able to oppose the spontaneous development of mammary tumours occurring in HER-2/neu transgenic mice. In this study, we have e...

    Efficacy of cancer gene therapy in aging: adenocarcinoma cells engineered to release IL-2 are rejected but do not induce tumor specific immune memory in old mice

    Numerous studies have demonstrated the efficacy of cytokine gene-engineered tumor cells to induce tumor rejection and specific memory acquisition into syngeneic immunocompetent mice by activation of host-depen...

    Influence of Lymphokines and Thyroid Hormones on Natural Killer Activity

    Natural Killer (NK) cells are a subpopulation of lymphocytes which have spontaneous cytotoxic activity against tumor cells, virus-infected cells, and some normal cells (Herberman, 1982).
