Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9740182A1] Genetically transfected human dendritic cells are disclosed, as well as their production and use, preferably as vaccines. The invention has applications in the pharmaceutical industry and in medicine. The dendritic cells are produced by transfection with a foreign gene by means of liposomes, preferably by means of lipofectin, a liposome preparation. The disclosed vaccine consists of human, autologous dendritic cells transfected with a partial sequence of the human mucine-MUC1 gene which contains several tandem repeat nucleotide sequences of MUC1. By using a glycosylation inhibitor, tumour-associated epitopes are created in these cells, preferably at their surface.
