Methods are provided to enhance the expression on certain disease-effector cells of MHC peptides and/or the amount of disease-associated antigens presented by such MHC peptides. These methods relate to certain incubation times for such cells following photopheresis treatment and also relate to appropriate incubation containers. Overall, these methods enhance a subject's immune response to disease-associated antigens expressed, for example, by clonal T-cell or B-cell malignancies and in T-cell or B-cell mediated autoimmune disorders. |
