ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the efficacy and explore the mechanism of the anti-tumor immunity elicited by heat shock protein 70-peptide complexes (HSP70-PC) derived from tumor cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Cells culture, flow cytometric analysis, affinity chromatography for protein purification, SDS-PAGE, Western-blotting and animal experiment were used.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>HSP70-PC immunization rendered protective effect to both naive tumorl-bearing mice. All of the naive mice obtained complete resistance to Hcaf cell attack; 40% of the tumor-bearing mice survived for over 90 days, whereas the mice of control group died within 2 weeks (P < 0.01). CD8+ subset of T lymphocytes in the peripheral blood of immunized mice increased by 12%.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>HSP70-PC induces anti-tumor immunity via activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs), and it possesses strong tumor vaccine effect. Our research adds more evidence to support the clinical use of HSP70-PC to fight human cancers.</p>
