ABSTRACT
AIM:
To predict and identify an HLA-A3 supertype-restricted cytotoxic T-lymphocyte(CTL) epitope derived from MAGEC2,which is utility in epitope design for the development of HLA-based vaccines and immuno-therapeutics.METHODS:
HLA-A3 epitopes from MAGEC2 protein were predicted by BIMAS, SYFPEITHI and IEDB. The binding affinity of the peptides to HLA-A*03 molecule was evaluated by T2A3 cell binding assay.ELISPOT assay was used to investigate the ability of the peptides inducing specific restricted CTLs to release interferon -γ(IFN-γ).The ability of the peptides to induce T-cell response was investigated by cytotoxicity assay in vitro.RESULTS:
The candidate peptides P147,P167, P196, P229 and P251 showed moderate affinity toward HLA-A3 molecule.ELISPOT assay showed that P167,P196 and P251 were able to induce specific CTLs and higher levels of IFN-γwere released.The CTLs induced by P196 and P251 were able to lyse target cells.CONCLUSION:
The peptides P196 and P251 have higher binding affinity with HLA-A3 and retain immunogenicity.They are excellent HLA-A3-restricted CTL epitopes from tumor antigen MA-GEC2,which could serve as new candidates towards antitumor peptide vaccines.
