Materials and methods relating to the stimulation of cells

摘要

The application provides a method of producing a complex for activating an immune cell against an antigen. The method comprises the steps of: applying a linker to the surface of an activating cell or to the surface of a component of an activating cell, the linker attaching in a non-immunologically specific manner to said surface; and connecting a co-stimulator to the surface via the linker such that the co-stimulator can function in the activation of the immune cell.
