1 9862732 HLA-independent heterogeneity of CD8+ T cell responses to MAGE-3, Melan-A/MART-1, gp100, tyrosinase, MC1R, and TRP-2 in vaccine-treated melanoma patients.
2 9862732 To identify such peptides, we evaluated HLA-A*02+ melanoma patients immunized to a polyvalent vaccine containing multiple Ags, including MAGE-3, Melan-A/MART-1, gp100, tyrosinase, melanocortin receptor (MC1R), and dopachrome tautomerase (TRP-2).
3 9862732 Using a filter spot assay, we measured peripheral blood CD8+ T cell responses, before and after immunization, to a panel of 45 HLA-A*0201-restricted peptides derived from these Ags.
4 12747753 One model that we have developed entails immunization of mice against tyrosinase-related protein-2 (Tyrp2) using cDNA encoding homologous human Tyrp2.
5 16651447 We sought to improve on this strategy by combining xenogeneic DNA vaccination with an agonist anti-glucocorticoid-induced tumor necrosis factor receptor family-related gene (GITR) monoclonal antibody (mAb), DTA-1, which has been shown previously both to costimulate activated effector CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells and to inhibit the suppressive activity of CD4(+)CD25(+) regulatory T cells.
6 16651447 We found that ligation of GITR with DTA-1 just before the second, but not the first, of 3 weekly DNA immunizations enhanced primary CD8(+) T-cell responses against the melanoma differentiation antigens gp100 and tyrosinase-related protein 2/dopachrome tautomerase and increased protection from a lethal challenge with B16 melanoma.
7 16651447 Finally, this effect on vaccine-induced CD8(+) T-cell responses was partially independent of CD4(+) T cells (both helper and regulatory), consistent with a direct costimulatory effect on the effector CD8(+) cells themselves.
8 20179673 CD4(+) T cells contribute to the antitumor T-cell response as both effectors that promote tumor rejection and helpers that facilitate the activation of other antitumor effector cells, such as CD8(+) T cells.
9 20179673 We have employed the B16F10 murine melanoma model and a series of recombinant adenovirus (Ad) vaccines expressing mutant forms of the tumor antigen, dopachrome tautomerase, to investigate the relationship between antigen processing and the antitumor CD4(+) T-cell response.
10 22754760 The vaccine triggered upregulation of the immune inhibitory PD-1 signaling pathway and PD-1 blockade dramatically enhanced the rHuAd5-hDCT + anti-4-1BB strategy, resulting in complete regression of growing tumors in > 70% of recipients.
11 22754760 The impact of the combined anti-4-1BB/anti-PD-1 treatment did not manifest as a dramatic enhancement in either the magnitude or functionality of DCT-specific tumor infiltrating lymphocytes relative to either treatment alone.
12 23333935 In situ Ad.Flagrp170 therapy provokes systemic activation of CTLs that recognize several antigens naturally expressing in melanoma (e.g., gp100/PMEL and TRP2/DCT).
13 23333935 Antibody neutralization assays show that IL-12 and IFN-γ are essential for the Flagrp170-elicited antitumor response, which also involves CD8(+) T cells and natural killer cells.
14 23562574 The effect of this stimulation regarding the transcription-pattern of the tyrosinase gene family (melanin genes) and the immune-related genes MHC class II and IFN-1 was analysed using real-time RT-qPCR.
15 23562574 At 10°C cultivation, tyrosinase and dopachrome tautomerase remained unregulated.
