1 9520286 To characterize immune responses to these immunogens, we examined the production of antibodies to the B700 melanoma antigen, the stimulation of endogenous IL-2 production, the expression of CD4, CD8, Vbeta and CD25 T cell markers, and the induction of NK activity.
2 10641571 We hypothesized that intradermal (i.d.) injection of granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) would recruit DCs into melanoma skin metastases and enhance autologous melanoma antigen presentation to host T cells.
3 10786687 Genetic immunization with a single injection of dendritic cells (DCs) expressing a model melanoma antigen generates antigen-specific, MHC-restricted, protective immune responses.
4 11918082 We have previously reported that immunization of mice with melanoma cells transfected to secrete the superantigen, Staphylococcal enterotoxin A (SEA), increased the production of antibodies to the B700 melanoma antigen, stimulated the production of endogenous interleukin 2 (IL-2), activated the expression of CD4, CD8 and CD25 T cell markers and enhanced NK cell activity.
5 12817001 Another of these DR1-restricted CD4(+) clones recognized not only the MAGE-3/12 peptide but also homologous peptides encoded by genes MAGE-1, 2, 4, 6, 10, and 11.
6 16157421 We have shown that FITC-labeled nLT is taken up by human dendritic cells (hDC) in vitro and in mouse skin, and induces maturation and activation of hDC in vitro. hDC matured with nLT enhanced nonspecific melanoma antigen uptake and presentation to autologous CD8+ T cells.
7 16311731 Direct injection of a lentiviral vector encoding the melanoma antigen NY-ESO-1 in HLA-A2 transgenic mice primed NY-ESO-1-specific CD8+ cells that could be expanded by boosting with an NY-ESO-1 vaccinia virus.
8 16741971 Interestingly, BORIS induces demethylation and subsequent expression of many cancer-testis genes, including MAGE-A1 and NY-ESO-1, indicating that it is expressed very early in malignancy and might be an attractive candidate for immunotherapy.
9 17803450 Twenty-four (24) pretreated patients with relapsed high-risk resected The American Joint Committee on Cancer (AJCC) stage IIA-IV melanoma received adjuvant peptide vaccinations derived from the melanosomal antigens MelanA/MART1, MAGE-1, gp100, and tyrosinase, according to patient tumor-associated human leukocyte antigen (HLA) restricted antigen expression, in combination with granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF).
10 19047169 Furthermore, TA99 enhances DNA vaccination against a distinct melanoma antigen, gp100(pmel17/silver locus), improving antitumor efficacy, augmenting systemic CD8+ T-cell responses to gp100, and increasing CD8+ T-cell infiltration at the tumor site.
11 21785964 We have previously identified CTAg-specific immune responses in patients with multiple myeloma and reported that recognition of the MAGE-A1(289-298) peptide, which is described as being restricted by HLA-B*0702, was the most frequent response seen with our peptide panel.
