IFNA1 and neoplasm: To investigate the mechanisms by which IFN gene therapy contributes to the induction of anti-tumor immunity, we engineered ALL cells with a LV allowing coordinate expression of the Ovalbumin (OVA) model antigen and the truncated form of the nerve growth factor receptor (NGFR) cell surface marker from a bidirectional promoter (OVA-ALL, Supplementary Fig. 1b and c).
