ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to antigen-presenting cells having specificity against a selected antigen and methods for making the cells. The invention also relates to a method of selecting efficient antigen-presenting cells using reporter fusion constructs. The highly efficient antigen-presenting cells of the invention will provide a therapeutic strategy of modulating immune responses for a variety of diseases.
