ABSTRACT
Objective To study the role of human MutS homolog 2 (hMSH2), a newly identified protein ligand that was recognized by Vγ9δ2 T cells , in innate anti-gastric carcinoma immunity .Methods Flow cytometry and laser confocal microscopy were used to identify hMSH 2 that ectopically expressed on gas-tric carcinoma cell line 803.An anti-hMSH2 antibody was used to block hMSH2 to evaluate its effects on the cytotoxicity of Vγ9δ2 T cells and their cytokines secretion .Subcellular distribution of hMSH 2 in gastric car-cinoma tissues was examined by tissue microarray immunohistochemistry analysis .Results Ectopic mem-brane expression of hMSH 2 was observed on 803 cells at a relatively high level .Vγ9δ2 T cells blocked with specific anti-hMSH2 antibody showed a decreased cytotoxicity and a reduced IFN-γbut an increased TNF-αsecretion.Ectopic expression of hMSH2 was found in various types of gastric carcinoma tissues at different stages.Enhanced expression of hMSH2 was detected in specimens collected from patients with chronic super-ficial gastritis.Conclusion Ectopically expressed hMSH2 served as a stress-induced endogenous ligand which could promote the cytotoxicity of Vγ9δ2 T cells against gastric carcinoma cells and enhance their IFN-γsecretion.hMSH2 played an essential role in innate anti-gastric carcinoma immunity .
