Figure 1 Different immunotherapy approaches.
The figure illustrates the two different vaccination approaches (using DNA or peptides) and the cellular and molecular elements used in anti-cancer immunotherapy. The adopted specific immune mechanisms are monoclonal antibodies and T cells: CD8+ (CTL) or CD4+ (T helper). About innate immune mechanisms, cytokines, dendritic cells (DCs) and natural killer cells (NKs) represent the most exploited components.
