Zusammenfassung: | Aspects of the present invention relate to the use the growth factors such as e.g., cytokines IL-2 and IL-12 for T-cell activation whereby the growth factor(s) is/are expressed by cells comprising synthetic chromosomes. The growth factor(s) is/are desirably under controllable expression from a synthetic chromosome. By approaches described herein, one can control an immune response to treat or inhibit a disease such as a cancer. The control may be provided by inducing expression of the growth factor(s), wherein expression level(s) can be fine-tuned. If more than one growth factor is expressed, the levels can be individually controlled so that the desired concentrations of each growth factor are obtained. |
