Peptides and proteins represent an emerging class of powerful therapeutics. Peptide and protein nanogels are attractive carriers for the transport and delivery of biologically active peptides and proteins because they allow essentially quantitative encapsu ...
Background: Immunotherapy consists of activating the patient's immune system to fight cancer and has the great potential of preventing future relapses thanks to immunological memory. A great variety of strategies have emerged to harness the immune system a ...
Immunotherapy has been used in oncology in order to awaken the immune system of the patient against cancer. Within this promising field is emerging the use of therapeutic cancer vaccines, using tumor specific antigens to stimulate dendritic cells (DCs) ex ...
Cancer vaccination is a powerful strategy to combat cancer. A very attractive approach to prime the immune system against cancer cells involves the use of tumor lysate as antigen source. The immunogenicity of tumor lysate can be further enhanced by treatme ...
