Research Abstract |
We assessed immunoresponse to WT1 protein to develop cancer stem cell vaccine therapy. WT1 protein have a potential power to maintain the malignancies of its cancer cell, and it is expressed several malignancies. We confirmed HLA-A24 restricted WT1 derived peptide specific immunoresponses. Furthermore, we tried to separate cancer stem cell by using CD133 antibody. We confirmed the spheres formation in some parts of cancer cell. We believe that this may be consolidated the foundation of Niche control.
