CD8A and esophageal squamous cell carcinoma: We used four-color ImmunoSpot® assays, in conjunction with peptide pools that cover the sequence of tyrosinase (Tyr), melanoma-associated antigen A3 (MAGE-A3), melanocyte antigen/melanoma antigen recognized by T cells 1 (Melan-A/MART-1), glycoprotein 100 (gp100), and New York esophageal squamous cell carcinoma-1 (NY-ESO-1) to characterize the melanoma antigen (MA)-specific CD8 + cell repertoire in PBMC of 40 healthy human donors (HD).
