Burke and colleagues demonstrated in an in vitro model that following an initial cycle of chemotherapy "humoral factors" are generated which are capable of recruiting quiescent leukemic blasts into S-phase.
The growth factor could then work with the other "humoral factors" generated by chemotherapy to maximize recruitment of leukemic blasts into cell cycle.
A prominent humoral abnormality in SSc is manifested by the presence of anti-nuclear antibodies [ 5].
DNA- and peptide-based vaccines have become popular due to the comparative ease of construction, the circumvention of potential safety issues around attenuated organisms, and for their potentially enhanced immunogenicity compared to heat-killed and subunit vaccines [ 20 21 22 ] . DNA vaccines have the added attraction of efficiently priming both humoral and cytotoxic cell responses, a property largely lacking in subunit and attenuated organism vaccines.
In cell cultures of CD4 T cells and B cells from allergic individuals, addition of anti-CD81 antibody enhances IL-4 production from the T cells [ 19 ] . In mice, either complete lack of CD81, or lack of CD81 on B cells, leads to impaired humoral and Th2 immune responses [ 20 21 ] . Allergen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness is also decreased in CD81 nullmice [ 22 ] . Finally, lack of CD81 on murine T cells diminishes IL-4 production, with reduced expression of ICOS, GATA-3, STAT6 and phosphorylated STAT6 [ 23 ] .
