Abstract
Aiming to increase the potency of synthetic long peptide (SLP)-based cancer vaccines, the Toll-like receptor 2 (TLR2) ligand Pam3CSK4 was conjugated in a chemically defined fashion to SLPs harbouring both cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) and T helper epitopes. We recently showed that these SLP-conjugates induce strong antitumor immunity in murine cancer models.Entities:
