Outline of Final Research Achievements |
By means of a peptide-conjugated cDNA library screening method, several dendritic cell (DC)-selected, cell penetrating peptides (CPP) have been identified. These CPP, namely H03L and F04L, when fused to a CTL target antigen, exert presentation more effectively on DC than on fibroblast cells.The antigen presentation by H03L and F04L on DC was superior to that of R10, which is a non-selective CPP. Then H03L and F04L were respectively fused to FITC or recombinant green fluorescence protein(GFP). R10 was used as a (non-selective) CPP control. These fluorescent molecules were pulsed on in vitro induced DC, peripheral lymphocyte, EBV-infected B-lymphoblastoid cells or fibroblast cells. After incubated and washed, they were analyzed on a flow cytometer. Both H03L and F04L effectively penetrated not only into DC but also peripheral monocytes and the B-lymphoblastoid cells. These results indicate the identified CPP are not exclusively selective to DC, but to myeloid lineage cells.
