Outline of Final Research Achievements |
T cells play important roles to suppress cancer generation in vivo. Recently, cancer therapy using T cells has been studied. T cells recognize the complex of cancer antigens and HLA molecules on cancer cells and kill them. The structure of HLA molecules are different in individual persons and T cells from a person whose HLA haplotype is different from a patient's HLA haplotype can not be used for the treatment of the patient. Major Japanese populations have HLA-A2 or A24 molecules. Thus, T cells recognizing cancer antigens in the context of HLA-A2 or A24 are studied, but those recognizing other HLA molecules are not. In this study, we have developed the method to find cancer-specific T cells independently of HLA haplotypes.
