Abstract
Objective:
To find out whether hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells express HLA-I antigens.
Methods:
LSAB assay of immunohistochemistry was used to detect six frozen HCC specimens.
Results:
All the HCC cells have strong expression of HLA-I antigens.
Conclusion:
In view of these data on the expression of HLA-I antigens, the authors deem it practical to develop HCC CTL vaccine.
