Furthermore, animal model experiments have indicat...... hiện toàn bộ
Targeting cytotoxic T‐lymphocyte antigen‐4 (CTLA‐4)Cancer - Tập 110 Số 12 - Trang 2614-2627 - 2007
Steven O’Day, Omid Hamid, Walter J. Urba
AbstractCancer immunotherapy centers on modulating the host's tumor‐directed immune response. One promising approach involves augmentation of cell‐mediated immunity by interrupting T‐cell pathways responsible for immune down‐regulation or tolerance. The discovery of cytotoxic T‐lymphocyte antigen‐4 (CTLA‐4) and its role as a key negative regulator for T cells has p...... hiện toàn bộ
