Abstract

The present invention provides an immature dendritic cell line derived from p53 growth suppressor gene deficient animals. The immature dendritic cell line may be induced to become an activated dendritic cell line that will stimulate T-cells to proliferate. The cell line is useful for presentation of antigens involved in autoimmune disease and analysis of peptides that produce a T-cell response.
