METHODS FOR IDENTIFYING DENDRITIC CELL SUBSETS, FOR DETERMINING IF A PATIENT IS DEVELOPING A REGULATORY OR AN EFFECTOR IMMUNE RESPONSE, AND FOR DETERMINING RESPONSE TO IMMUNOTHERAPY

摘要

The present invention concerns methods for determining if a dendritic cell belongs to a tolerogenic dendritic cell subset or to an effector dendritic cell subset, and methods for determining if a patient undergoing immunotherapy, and/or who has been administered with a vaccine, is developing an immune response oriented either towards a regulatory T cell response or towards an effector T cell response, and methods of determining response to immunotherapy.
