Upon administration, hTERT mRNA/survivin peptide-double-loaded autologous dendritic cell vaccine may elicit an immune response against cancer cells expressing hTERT and survivin by activating cytotoxic T-cells (CTLs), natural killer cells (NKs), and B-lymphocytes. The tumor associated antigens (TAAs) hTERT, the catalytic subunit of human telomerase, and survivin, a member of the inhibitor of apoptosis (IAP) family of proteins, may be upregulated in certain tumor cell types and play key roles in tumor cell growth and survival. 5121 7015 Justin Song cancer vaccine Gene name: TERT VIOLIN: https://violinet.org/vaxquery/vaccine_detail.php?c_vaccine_id=5121 https://github.com/vaccineontology/VO/issues/440 Jie Zheng Oliver He therapeutic cancer vaccine
