Abstract

Materials and methods of activating T lymphocytes with specificity for particular antigenic peptides are described, as well as the use of activated T lymphocytes in vitro for the treatment of a variety of disease conditions. In particular, a method for producing a synthetic antigen presenting drosophila cell line for activating T lymphocytes to a specific peptide is described.
