Example sentences for: tumor-specific

How can you use “tumor-specific” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

Previous studies have shown that adoptively transferred tumor antigen-specific CD4 +T cells can be tolerized in the secondary lymphoid organs [ 9 34 ] , including the RIP-Tag2 model [ 30 ] . Radiation may kill or disable regulatory T cells [ 35 36 ] , or other bone marrow-derived tolerizing cells and prevent the induction of tolerance in adoptively transferred tumor-specific T cells [ 9 ] . Additionally, the high but sub-lethal dose of radiation used leads to significant lymphopenia [ 37 ] . The sudden reduction in lymphocyte number may create the spatial allowance in spleen and lymph nodes necessary for the homing, activation and expansion of he adoptively-transferred T cells.
Third, radiation may alter the biophysical structures of tumors, which in some tumors has the capability to impair the infiltration or function of tumor-specific T cells.
In this approach, an enzyme is conjugated to a tumor-specific antibody.
An increasing number of tumor antigens have been identified [ 1 ] . Tumor vaccines have been successful in eliciting tumor-specific CD4 +and/or CD8 +T cell responses.
A recent study has suggested that tumor-specific, CD4 +T cells can exert anti-tumor effects by inhibiting angiogenesis via release of IFN-γ [ 11 ] . Thus, the "white" tumors noted in the current study may be indicative of angiogenic inhibition by the infiltrating tumor-specific, CD4 +T cells, and such inhibition may be relevant to the observed efficacy.
