A novel system for cloning human TCRs: Cutting short the way to TCR-based anticancer therapy

T-cell receptor (TCR)-based gene immunotherapy has emerged as a promising approach for the treatment of multiple malignancies. We have recently reported an efficient system for the cloning and functional evaluation of TCR-coding cDNAs. This system, which we named hTEC10, allows for the determination...

Sumario:T-cell receptor (TCR)-based gene immunotherapy has emerged as a promising approach for the treatment of multiple malignancies. We have recently reported an efficient system for the cloning and functional evaluation of TCR-coding cDNAs. This system, which we named hTEC10, allows for the determination of TCR antigen specificity in less than 10 days, and may therefore constitute a fast and powerful platform for the development of new TCR-based anticancer therapies.
