ISOLATED PEPTIDES WHICH BIND TO MHC CLASS II MOLECULES, AND USES THEREOF

摘要

Peptides which have an amino acid sequence identical to sequences found in tumor rejection antigen precursors, such as NY-ESO-1, and SSX-2, are disclosed. These peptides bind to MHC-Class II molecules, such as HLA-DR molecules, and provoke proliferation of CD4+ cells.
