  "term": "autologous prostate cancer-specific antigens-pulsed dendritic cells Cellgram-DC-PC",
  "field": "Oncology and biomedicine",
  "definition": "A cell-based cancer vaccine composed of autologous dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with prostate cancer (PC)-specific antigen(s), with potential immunostimulatory and antineoplastic activities. Upon administration of the autologous PC-specific antigens-pulsed DCs injected subcutaneously near the inguinal lymph nodes, the DCs stimulate a specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL)-mediated immune response against the PC cells expressing the antigens, resulting in tumor cell lysis.",
