Read or download book entitled Vaccines for Cancer Immunotherapy written by Nima Rezaei which was release on 17 October 2018, this book published by Academic Press. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle Format. Book excerpt: Therapeutic cancer vaccines represent a type of active cancer immunotherapy. Clinicians, scientists, and researchers working on cancer treatment require evidence-based and up-to-date resources relating to therapeutic cancer vaccines. Vaccines for Cancer Immunotherapy provides a reference for cancer treatment for clinicians and presents a well-organized resource for determining high-potential research areas. The book considers that this promising modality can be made more feasible as a treatment for cancer. Chapters cover cancer immunology, general approaches to cancer immunotherapy, vaccines, tumor antigens, the strategy of allogeneic and autologous cancer vaccines, personalized vaccines, whole-tumor antigen vaccines, protein and peptide vaccines, dendritic cell vaccines, genetic vaccines, candidate cancers for vaccination, obstacles to developing therapeutic cancer vaccines, combination therapy, future perspectives and concluding remarks on therapeutic cancer vaccines. Introduces the feasible immunotherapeutic vaccines for patients with different types of cancer Presents the status of past and current vaccines for cancer treatment Considers advantages and disadvantages of different therapeutic cancer vaccines Looks at the combination of vaccines and other modalities, including immunotherapeutic and conventional methods Analyzes obstacles to development of therapeutic cancer vaccines Gives a view on future perspectives in the application of therapeutic cancer vaccines

Summary : The idea of a preventive vaccine against cancer has been extremely attractive because of the immune system’s ability to develop specific and long-lasting immunological memory. Dendritic cells, which present antigen to T cells, sit at a critical point in the activation of the immune system because they are able ...

Summary : The hyperacute rejection of a xenotransplant is characterized by a complement-antibody mediated immune response dependent on αGal epitopes. Animal studies confirm that αGal epitopes expressed on allogeneic tumor vaccines elicit a potent T-cell-dependent antitumor immunity. Based on these immunologic reactions, we hypothesized that the hyperacute rejection mechanism could be exploited ...
