State the specific T cell of MAGE-A3 of TCR acquisition, and they are in prevention and treatment MAGE-A3 correlation disease
Purposes in disease.
Background technology
MAGE-A3, as a kind of autochthonous tumor antigen, is degraded to micromolecule polypeptide after generating in the cell,
And combine to form complex with MHC (main histocompatibility complex) molecule, it is presented to cell surface.
Research display, SYVKVLHHM is the small peptide derived from MAGE-A3.MAGE-A3 albumen is in kinds of tumors type
In all have expression, including melanoma, and other solid tumor such as gastric cancer, pulmonary carcinoma, esophageal carcinoma, bladder
Cancer, squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck etc..For the treatment of above-mentioned disease, chemotherapy and radiation treatment can be adopted
Etc. method, but all the normal cell of itself can be caused damage.
T cell adoptive immunotherapy is to proceed to disease by having specific reaction-ive T cell to target cell antigen
So as to play a role for target cell in human body.φt cell receptor (TCR) is a kind of film on T cell surface
Albumen, it is capable of identify that the antigen small peptide of corresponding target cells.In immune system, short by antigen
The TCR of peptide specific causes T thin with the combination of small peptide-main histocompatibility complex (pMHC complex)
Born of the same parents and antigen-presenting cell (APC) directly physical contact, then T cell and other cells both APC
Membrane surface molecule just interacts, and causes a series of follow-up cell signal transmission and other physiology anti-
Should, so that the T cell of different antigenic specificity plays immunological effect to its target cell.Therefore, ability
Field technique personnel are devoted to isolating and have specific TCR to MAGE-A3 antigen small peptide, and by this TCR
Transduction T cell has specific T cell to obtain to MAGE-A3 antigen small peptide, so that they are thin
Play a role in born of the same parents' immunization therapy.
