Monitoring the systemic human memory B cell compartment of melanoma patients for anti-tumor IgG antibodies.

Monitoring the systemic human memory B cell compartment of melanoma patients for anti-tumor IgG antibodies.

Melanoma, a potentially lethal skin cancer, is widely thought to be immunogenic in nature. While there has been much focus on T cell-mediated immune responses, limited knowledge exists on the role of mature B cells. We describe an approach, including a cell-based ELISA, to evaluate mature IgG antibo...
