摘要
Cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has been found to be over-expressed in esophageal carcinoma (EC) and it could be considered as a potential tumor-associated antigen (TAA). In the present study, six candidate peptides from COX-2 were firstly predicted and synthesized. Among them, P-479 had the highest affinity and stability toward both HLA-A*0201 and HLA-A*03 molecules and it could significantly promote the IFN-gamma release. The cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) induced by P-479 could specifically lyse COX-2-expressed EC cell lines, EC-1 (HLA-A3 supertype) and EC-9706 (HLA-A2 supertype). These results suggested that P-479 as a novel broad-spectrum T cell epitope would be very useful in immunotherapy against esophageal carcinoma. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ireland Ltd. All rights reserved.
