摘 要:AIM:To demonstrate whether class I MHC molecule,transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP), and heat-shock proteion70 (HSP70) expressed in liver cancer cells before the design and construction of CTL vaccine against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).METHODS: We studied 30 HCC specimens by labeled streptavidin biotin (LSAB) method of ***: The results showed that the majority of HCC cells investigated naturally expressed class I MHC and TAP,which were different from other tumor cells. Furthermore,we found that HSP70 expressed not only in cellularcytoplasm, but also on the cell surface in ***: Our findings indicate that our understanding about immune escape mechanisms employed by HCC cells may be further improved, It is important to design and construct CTL vaccine against HCC.
