134 11051238 Because little is known about their composite expression in human brain tumors, we investigated the expression of seven CT genes (MAGE-3, NY-ESO-1, HOM-MEL-40/SSX-2, SSX-1, SSX-4,HOM-TES-14/SCP-1, and HOM-TES-85) in 88 human brain tumor specimens.
135 11051238 Meningiomas expressed only HOM-TES-14/SCP-1 (18% of meningiomas were HOM-TES-14/SCP-1 positive) and did not express any other CT genes.
136 11051238 Astrocytomas were most frequently positive for HOM-TES-14/SCP-1 (40%) and SSX-4 (27%), followed by HOM-TES-85 (13%), SSX-2 (11%), and MAGE-3 (7%).
137 11120859 Efficient simultaneous presentation of NY-ESO-1/LAGE-1 primary and nonprimary open reading frame-derived CTL epitopes in melanoma.
138 11120859 In this study we have analyzed the HLA-A2-restricted CD8(+) T cell response to a recently identified CTL epitope derived from an alternative ORF product of gene LAGE-1 (named CAMEL), and the highly homologous gene NY-ESO-1 in melanoma patients.
139 11120859 Using MHC/peptide tetramers we detected CAMEL(1-11)-specific CD8(+) T cells in peptide-stimulated PBMC as well as among tumor-infiltrated lymph node cells from several patients.
140 11120859 A large series of HLA-A2-positive melanoma cell lines was characterized for the expression of LAGE-1 and NY-ESO-1 mRNA and protein and tested for recognition by CAMEL-specific CTL as well as CTL that recognize a peptide (NY-ESO-1(157-165)) encoded by the primary ORF products of the LAGE-1 and NY-ESO-1 genes.
141 11120859 This analysis revealed that tumor-associated CD8(+) T cell epitopes are simultaneously and efficiently generated from both primary and nonprimary ORF products of LAGE-1 and NY-ESO-1 genes and, importantly, that this occurs in the majority of melanoma tumors.

237 11782380 NY-ESO-1 119-143 is a promiscuous major histocompatibility complex class II T-helper epitope recognized by Th1- and Th2-type tumor-reactive CD4+ T cells.
238 11782380 The NY-ESO-1 gene also encodes several MHC class I- and MHC class II-restricted tumor epitopes recognized by T lymphocytes.
239 11782380 In particular, we previously reported that the NY-ESO-1 119-143 peptide contains at least two HLA-DRB1*0401-presented epitopes that are recognized by melanoma-reactive CD4+ T cells.
240 11782380 Here we report that the NY-ESO-1 119-143 peptide can be presented in the context of multiple HLA-DR alleles to stimulate tumor-reactive CD4+ T cells.
241 11782380 The NY-ESO-1 119-143 peptide is also capable of inducing specific CD4+ T cells in vitro from peripheral blood lymphocytes of normal donors and patients with melanoma who express these HLA-DR alleles.
242 11782380 These CD4+ T cells recognize NY-ESO-1(+), HLA-matched or autologous melanoma cell lines, as well as autologous antigen-presenting cells fed with the NY-ESO-1 protein.

462 14580186 Peptide NY-ESO-1(157-165) was remarkably immunogenic and induced a CD8+ T cell response detectable ex vivo at an early time point of the vaccination protocol.
463 14580186 A CD8+ T cell response to the peptide analog Melan-A(26-35 A27L) was also detectable ex vivo at a later time point, whereas CD8+ T cells specific for peptide tyrosinase(368-376) were detected only after in vitro peptide stimulation.

495 14745515 NY-ESO-1 is a SEREX-defined cancer-testis antigen of which several MHC I, but only few MHC II-restricted epitopes have been identified.
496 14745515 Searching for highly promiscuous MHC II-restricted peptides that might be suitable as a CD4+ stimulating vaccine for many patients, we used the SYFPEITHI algorithm and identified an NY-ESO-1-derived pentadecamer epitope (p134-148) that induced specific CD4+ T-cell responses restricted to the HLA-DRB1 subtypes *0101, *0301, *0401, and *0701 that have a cumulative prevalence of 40% in the Caucasian population.
497 14745515 However, no strict correlation was found between CD4+ T-cell responses against p134-148 reactivity and anti-NY-ESO-1 antibody titers in the serum of patients, suggesting that CD4+ and B-cell responses are regulated independently.

631 15521719 Six patients had mixed Th1/Th2 CD4+ T cell responses to NY-ESO-1 epitope 157-170 regardless of their antibody response to NY-ESO-1.
632 15521719 Four EOC patients had Th1 cells expressing IFN-gamma, but not IL-5.
633 15521719 This suggests that the NY-ESO-1 epitope 157-170 stimulates both Th1 and Th2 type CD4+ T cell responses in EOC patients.
634 15521719 Our study supports the relevance of cancer vaccine trials with the NY-ESO-1 epitope 157-170 in HLA-DP4+ EOC patients with NY-ESO-1-expressing tumors and strategies to improve Th1-dominated tumor-reactive CD4+ T cell bias.

644 15546948 Here we report that the type of human DC, the mode of activation, and the strategy for delivery of antigen are 3 critical factors for efficient stimulation of tumor-specific CD8+ and CD4+ T cells.
645 15546948 Only CD1c+ blood DCs and monocyte-derived DCs (MoDCs) were capable of presenting epitopes of the full-length tumor antigen NY-ESO-1 on both major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I (cross-presentation) and MHC II, whereas plasmacytoid DCs were limited to MHC II presentation.
646 15599405 Activation of invariant CD1d-dependent NK T cells (iNKT cells) in vivo through administration of the glycolipid ligand alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer) or the sphingosine-truncated alpha-GalCer analog OCH leads to CD40 signaling as well as the release of soluble molecules including type 1 and gamma interferons that contribute to DC maturation.
647 15599405 The adjuvant activity of alpha-GalCer enhances both priming and boosting of CD8(+) T cells to coadministered peptide or protein antigens, including a peptide encoding the clinically relevant, HLA-A2-restricted epitope of the human tumor antigen NY-ESO-1.
648 15661935 Indeed, a recent study revealed CTLs specific for two cancer-testis (CT) Ags (MAGE-A1 and MAGE-A3) in tumor infiltrating lymphocytes of HCC patients.
649 15661935 Here we assessed the presence of T cells specific for additional CT Ags: MAGE-A10, SSX-2, NY-ESO-1, and LAGE-1, which are naturally immunogenic as demonstrated in HLA-A2(+) melanoma patients.
650 15661935 Therefore, besides melanoma, HCC is the second solid human tumor with clear evidence for in vivo tumor recognition by T cells, providing the rational for specific immunotherapy, based on immunization with CT Ags such as MAGE-A10 and SSX-2.

1126 20733200 An attractive treatment of cancer consists in inducing tumor-eradicating CD8(+) CTL specific for tumor-associated Ags, such as NY-ESO-1 (ESO), a strongly immunogenic cancer germ line gene-encoded tumor-associated Ag, widely expressed on diverse tumors.
1127 20733200 This prime boost regimen was superior to other vaccine regimes and required strong Th1 cell responses, copresentation of MHC class I and MHC class II peptides by the same DC, and resulted in upregulation of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1, and thus egress of freshly primed CD8(+) T cells from the draining lymph nodes into circulation.
1128 20733200 This well-defined system allowed detailed mechanistic analysis, which revealed that 1) the Th1 cytokines IFN-gamma and IL-2 played key roles in CTL priming, namely by upregulating on naive CD8(+) T cells the chemokine receptor CCR5; 2) the inflammatory chemokines CCL4 (MIP-1beta) and CCL3 (MIP-1alpha) chemoattracted primed CD4(+) T cells to mature DCs and activated, naive CD8(+) T cells to DC-CD4 conjugates, respectively; and 3) blockade of these chemokines or their common receptor CCR5 ablated priming of CD8(+) T cells and upregulation of sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1.
1129 20733202 Whereas peptide immunization with an H2-D(d)-restricted CTL epitope derived from NY-ESO-1 (NY-ESO-1 p81-88) induced NY-ESO-1(81-88)-specific CD8(+) T cells in draining lymph nodes and spleens, tumor growth was significantly enhanced.
1130 20733202 Single-cell analysis of specific CD8(+) T cells revealed that peptide immunization caused apoptosis of >80% of NY-ESO-1(81-88)-specific CD8(+) T cells at tumor sites and repetitive immunization further diminished the number of specific CD8(+) T cells.

1139 21131422 In contrast to NY-ESO-1, little is known about spontaneous immune responses to LAGE-1.
1140 21131422 In the current study, we report on spontaneous LAGE-1-specific CD4(+) T cells isolated from PBLs of patients with advanced LAGE-1(+)/NY-ESO-1(+) melanoma and directed against three promiscuous and immunodominant epitopes.
1141 21131422 Strikingly, although the three LAGE-1-derived epitopes are highly homologous to NY-ESO-1-derived epitopes, LAGE-1-specific CD4(+) T cells did not cross-react with NY-ESO-1.
1142 21131422 LAGE-1-specific CD4(+) T cells produced Th1-type and/or Th2-type cytokines and did not exert inhibitory effects on allogenic T cells.
1143 21131422 We observed that most patients with spontaneous NY-ESO-1-specific responses exhibited spontaneous CD4(+) T cell responses to at least one of the three immunodominant LAGE-1 epitopes.
1144 21131422 Additionally, nearly half of the patients with spontaneous LAGE-1-specific CD4(+) T cell responses had circulating LAGE-1-specific Abs that recognized epitopes located in the C-terminal portion of LAGE-1, which is distinct from NY-ESO-1.
1145 21131422 Collectively, our findings define the hierarchy of immunodominance of spontaneous LAGE-1-specific CD4(+) T cell responses in patients with advanced melanoma.
1146 21131422 These findings demonstrate the capability of LAGE-1 to stimulate integrated cellular and humoral immune responses that do not cross-react with NY-ESO-1.
1147 21131422 Therefore, they provide a strong rationale for the inclusion of LAGE-1 peptides or protein in vaccine trials for patients with NY-ESO-1(+)/LAGE-1(+) tumors.

1229 21149605 We generated two novel targeting proteins consisting of the full-length NY-ESO-1 fused to the C terminus of two human mAbs against the human mannose receptor and DEC-205, both internalizing molecules expressed on APC.
1230 21149605 These targeting proteins were evaluated for their ability to activate NY-ESO-1-specific human CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells in vitro.

1272 21448901 We conducted a phase I clinical trial of a cancer vaccine using a 20-mer NY-ESO-1f peptide (NY-ESO-1 91-110) that includes multiple epitopes recognized by antibodies, and CD4 and CD8 T cells.
1273 21448901 An increase in CD4 and CD8 T cell responses was observed in nine of ten patients.
1274 21448901 Vaccine-induced CD4 and CD8 T cells responded to NY-ESO-1 91-108 in all patients with various HLA types with a less frequent response to neighboring peptides.
1275 21448901 The findings indicate that the 20-mer NY-ESO-1f peptide includes multiple epitopes recognized by CD4 and CD8 T cells with distinct specificity.
1276 21448901 Our study shows that the NY-ESO-1f peptide vaccine was well tolerated and elicited humoral, CD4 and CD8 T cell responses in immunized patients.

1539 24777970 Polyclonal NY-ESO-1-specific CD4(+) T-cell lines were generated from 12 patients using CD154-based selection of precursors before and after vaccination with (i) OLP alone, (ii) OLP in Montanide, or (iii) OLP and poly-ICLC in Montanide.
1540 24777970 Vaccination with OLP alone did not elicit CD4(+) T-cell responses; it suppressed high-avidity CD4(+) T-cell precursors that recognized naturally processed NY-ESO-1 protein before vaccination.
1541 24777970 Emulsification of OLP in Montanide was required for the expansion of high-avidity NY-ESO-1-specific CD4(+) T-cell precursors.

1543 24795353 Remarkable immunologic correlates to the clinical development were the transient induction of NY-ESO-1 antibody and the durable expansion of MAGE-A1p161-169 EADPTGHSY-specific CD8+ T cells.
1544 25081390 However, it remains unclear whether heterologous prime-boost strategies based on the combination with NY-ESO-1 ISCOMATRIX with different NY-ESO-1 boosting reagents could be used to increase NY-ESO-1 CD8(+) or CD4(+) T cell responses.

1592 26049546 Following short-term (14 d) culture activation with anti-CD3/anti-CD28 microbeads and expansion in low concentrations of IL-2, the melanoma-draining lymph node (MDLN) cells were ∼ 60% CD4-activated and ∼ 40% CD8-activated T cells.
