Abstract:e14297 Background: The induction of powerful CD8+ T cell immunity to tumor associated self-antigens (TAAs) represents a critical yet challenging goal. Here we report on the development of an arenavirus-based delivery platform meeting this challenge. Previously we have shown that genetically engineered replication-attenuated lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) vectors, TheraT(LCMV), induce strong TAA-specific CD8 T cell immunity, but these responses can not be substantially augmented upon TheraT(LCMV) re… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
