The importance of HLA for the development of cell therapies
Download our white paper to understand the role Human Leukocyte Antigen plays in the development of cell therapies.
The HLA complex plays a critical role in human immunity, notably in cell therapy. As translational research is gaining momentum, understanding the interplay between HLA and cancer is becoming increasingly relevant.
In this white paper, our expert Product Manager Dr. Lisa Hamelmann will guide you through the following topics:
- HLA restriction: finding and binding
- HLA and diseases: activating autoimmune responses
- HLA and cancer: how cancer cells escape recognition
- New therapeutic options: harnessing HLA for cancer immunotherapy
- HLA-typed cells: an important control system to test new immunotherapies
