Figure 2In vivo induction of PSA-specific T cell responses. PBMCs obtained at baseline (PSA, KK pre) and after three vaccination cycles (PSA, KK post) using PSA RNA–transfected DCs were cultured overnight with PSA or kallikrein protein (5 μg/ml). The specific T cell frequencies in each of the evaluable patients treated at a low dose level (10
7 cells; patient 2, 3, and 5), medium dose level (3 × 10
7 cells; patient 6, 7, and 9), or high dose level (5 × 10
7 cells; patient 11 and 13) is expressed as the number of spot-forming cells per 5 × 10
5 PBMCs seeded in each well.
