B-cell expansion in the presence of the novel 293-CD40L-sCD40L cell line allows the generation of large numbers of efficient xenoantigen-free APC

Background CD40-activated B lymphocytes have been used successfully as potent APC for the induction of T-cell responses. However, the 3T3-CD40L cell line, regularly used for engagement of CD40 on the B-cell surface, is a potential source of xenoantigens. This may affect the specificity of T cells st...
