  • Indeed, in vivo vaccination of syngeneic mice with pharmacologically pretreated melanoma cells induces tumor growth slowing down and reduction of pulmonary metastases implantation.

  • Again syngeneic mice were vaccinated as previously described and challenged intra-venously with 5×10

  • Moreover, this treatment enables the T-cell-induced reduction of tumor growth in syngeneic immunocompetent mice and enhanced levels of B16F10 specific CD8 T lymphocytes TRP-2/H-2K

  • To investigate whether MSCs could provide a neuroprotective effect, we isolated and injected intravenously syngeneic MSCs into RCS rats at P30 (n = 12), at which time the retinal degeneration is at an early stage.

  • To test whether pharmacological treatment of melanoma cells with IFN-γ and GGTI-298 could produce suitable cells for vaccination a murine model was used: B16F10 cell line, a poorly immunogenic and MHC-I negative melanoma of spontaneous origin, was injected in the syngeneic C57Bl/6 mice.
