摘要
Vaccination with idiotypic protein protects against B-cell lymphoma, mainly through anti-idiotypic antibody. For use in patients, DNA vaccines containing single-chain Fv derived from tumor provide a convenient alternative vaccine delivery system. However, single-chain Fv sequence alone induces low anti-idiotypic response and poor protection against lymphoma. Fusion of the gene encoding fragment C of tetanus toxin to single-chain Fv substantially promotes the anti-idiotypic response and induces strong protection against B-cell lymphoma. The same fusion design also induces protective immunity against a surface Ig-negative myeloma. These findings indicate that fusion to a pathogen sequence allows a tumor antigen to engage diverse immune mechanisms that suppress growth. This fusion design has the added advantage of overcoming potential tolerance to tumor that may exist in patients.
