Outline of Final Research Achievements

We built a novel method for inducing cancer-reactive cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) restricted to an HLA allele of interest. We used an artificial antigen presenting cell (aAPC), TOV21G that express a single HLA-A*24:02 allele and was originally derived from an ovarian clear cell carcinoma. Several CTL clones were established using aAPC stimulation. Then, cDNA library construction using mRNA extracted from the parental TOV21G cells and subsequent expression cloning was conducted.
These experiments revealed that a CTL clone recognized a minimal epitope peptide RYEFGQALF, which was derived from an autoantigen claudin-1 presented by HLA-A24:02 molecules.
Another clone responded not only to ovarian cancer cells in the context of HLA-A*24:02 but also to allogeneic HLA-Cw*07:02 molecules through cross-reactive TCR recognition. Expression screening using a cDNA library revealed that this alloreactivity was mediated through the 9-mer peptide VRTPYTMSY, derived from RNA-binding motif protein 4.
