Immunotherapy of tumors with α2-macroglobulin-antigen complexes pre-formed in vivo.
The cell surface receptor CD91/LRP-1 binds to immunogenic heat shock proteins (HSP) and α(2)M ligands to elicit T cell immune responses. In order to generate specific immune responses, the peptides chaperoned by HSPs or α(2)M are cross-presented on MHC molecules to T cells. While the immunogenic HSP...
