1 12121127 In this article, we tested by quantitative biodistribtution analysis whether conjugation to TAT peptides could improve the tumor targeting properties of scFv(L19)-Cys: an engineered human antibody fragment specific for the ED-B domain of fibronectin, a marker located in the modified extracellular matrix surrounding tumor neovasculature.
2 12121127 However, conjugation of scFv(L19)-Cys to TAT peptides resulted in a severely reduced tumor targeting performance compared to the unconjugated antibody, as measured in murine F9 teratocarcinoma-bearing mice, after intravenous injection of the radiolabeled antibody preparations.

5 12672050 Dendritic cells transduced with TAT protein transduction domain-containing tyrosinase-related protein 2 vaccinate against murine melanoma.
6 12672050 Here we studied B16 melanoma in C57BL/6 mice, using murine tyrosinase-related protein 2 (Trp2) as a candidate tumor Ag.
7 12672050 Trp2(180-188) peptide-pulsed DC protected 35% of recipients, and irradiated GM-CSF-producing B16 cells protected 75%. rTAT-PTD-Trp2Delta-transduced DC induced a more vigorous memory response to B16 rechallenge than the other regimens, and protected 30% of recipients from progressive tumor development in treatment studies.
8 12672050 In this setting, Trp2 peptide-treated DC protected 20% and irradiated GM-CSF-producing cells protected 0%.
9 15722168 In this paper, we have reviewed the delivery of different molecules and particles mediated by TAT, Antp, VP22, and other CPPs as well as potential applications of these delivery systems in different areas of vaccine development, cancer immunotherapy, gene delivery, and cellular imaging.
10 17610503 Addition of TAT protein transduction domain and GrpE to human p53 provides soluble fusion proteins that can be transduced into dendritic cells and elicit p53-specific T-cell responses in HLA-A*0201 transgenic mice.
11 17610503 The protein p53 has been shown to be an efficient tumour antigen in both murine and human cancer vaccine studies and cancer vaccines targeting p53 based on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I binding p53-derived peptides that induce cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) without p53-specific CD4(+) T-cell help have been tested by several research groups including ours.
12 17610503 To obtain such CD4(+) T-cell help and cover a broader repertoire of MHC haplotypes we have previously attempted to produce recombinant human p53 for vaccination purposes.
13 17610503 Here, we show that fusion of an 11-amino-acid region of the human immunodeficiency virus TAT protein transduction domain (PTD) to human p53 increases the solubility of the otherwise insoluble p53 protein and this rTAT-p53 protein can be transduced into human monocyte-derived dendritic cells (DCs).
14 17610503 The induction of a p53-specific HLA-A*0201 immune response was tested in HLA-A*0201/K(b) transgenic mice after immunization with rTAT-p53-transduced bone-marrow-derived DCs.
15 17610503 In these mice, p53-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell proliferation was observed and immunization resulted in the induction of HLA-A*0201-restricted CTLs specific for two human p53-derived HLA-A*0201-binding peptides, p53(65-73) and p53(149-157).
16 17610503 Addition of TAT protein transduction domain and GrpE to human p53 provides soluble fusion proteins that can be transduced into dendritic cells and elicit p53-specific T-cell responses in HLA-A*0201 transgenic mice.

20 17610503 The induction of a p53-specific HLA-A*0201 immune response was tested in HLA-A*0201/K(b) transgenic mice after immunization with rTAT-p53-transduced bone-marrow-derived DCs.
21 17610503 In these mice, p53-specific CD4(+) and CD8(+) T-cell proliferation was observed and immunization resulted in the induction of HLA-A*0201-restricted CTLs specific for two human p53-derived HLA-A*0201-binding peptides, p53(65-73) and p53(149-157).
22 20574442 In murine leishmaniasis, healing is mediated by IFN-γ-producing CD4(+) and CD8(+) T cells.
23 20574442 Dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with exogenous proteins primarily induce strong CD4-dependent immunity; induction of CD8 responses has proven to be difficult.
24 20574442 Upon depletion of CD4(+) or CD8(+) T cells, TAT-LACK-mediated protection was lost.
25 20574442 In summary, these data show that TAT-fusion proteins are superior in activating Leishmania-specific Tc1 cells when compared with antigen alone and suggest that IL-12-dependent preferential induction of antigen-specific CD8(+) cells promotes significant protection against this important human pathogen.
26 26247926 In the current study we demonstrate that a cytotoxic T cell epitope from the mucin 1 (MUC1) tumour associated antigen, when delivered by TAT or Antp, generates identical immune responses in mice resulting in specific MUC1 T cell responses as measured by in vivo CTL assays, IFNγ ELISpot assays and prophylactic tumour protection.
