Abstract: | Modification of the tumor microenvironment with gene transfer techniques stimulates two immune mechanisms that effectuate tumor destruction. One involves improved tumor-antigen presentation for the development of specific cellular and humoral immunity. The second involves compromise of the tumor vasculature by soluble factors and leukocytes. |
