Apoptosis-regulated low-avidity cancer-specific CD8(+) T cells can be rescued to eliminate HER2/neu-expressing tumors by costimulatory agonists in tolerized mice
Published in Cancer immunology research (01-04-2014)“…A major barrier to vaccines in cancer treatment is their failure to activate and maintain a complete cancer-specific CD8(+) effector T-cell repertoire…”

Nondominant CD8 T cells are active players in the vaccine-induced antitumor immune response
Published in The Journal of immunology (1950) (01-04-2011)“…We previously reported that CD8(+) T cells are directed predominantly toward the immunodominant Her-2/neu (neu) epitope RNEU(420-429) in nontolerized FVB/N but…”

Abstract 455: Pro-apoptotic proteins affect survival of tumor-specific low avidity CD8+ T cells in tolerant mice
Published in Cancer research (Chicago, Ill.) (15-04-2013)“…Abstract A major barrier to cancer vaccines as therapy is the many tolerance mechanisms inhibiting the activation of cancer-specific T cells. Higher avidity T…”

Abstract B54: Low avidity tumor-specific CD8+ T cells are regulated by increased expression of proapoptotic proteins in tolerant mice
Published in Cancer research (Chicago, Ill.) (01-01-2013)“…Abstract This study aimed to identify potential tolerance signals specific to lower avidity T cells. Cancer vaccines are currently being investigated as a way…”

Preventing peripheral deletion enables apopstosis-susceptible, neu-specific, low avidity T cells to traffic into the tumor
Published 01-01-2013“…A major barrier to the effectiveness of cancer vaccines is the inability of tumor-specific low avidity T cells to traffic into and eradicate tumors. Low…”
