Abstract:
Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a key role in cancer immune escape. We identified target antigens of spontaneous tumor-specific T cell responses in urothelial carcinoma (UC) and evaluated their modulation by treatment and Treg. We determined Treg target antigens in UC. Fifty-six UC and 13 control patients were prospectively enrolled. Blood was drawn before and after routine treatment. Changes in Treg frequency were measured by fluorescence cytometry and the T effector cell (Teff) response agains...     »
