Research Abstract

We designed a novel and simple protein delivery system for center immunotherapy : cholesteryl group-bearing polysaccharides, mannan and pullulan (CHM and CHP), complexed with the truncated HER2 protein containing the 147N-terminal amino acids. CHM-HER2 were able to induce CD8ィイD1+ィエD1 CTLs against HER2ィイD1+ィエD1 tumors. These CTLs were KィイD1dィエD1 restricted and recognized specifically HER2p63-71, a part of a truncated HER2 protein used as an immunogen. Mice immunized with CHM-HER2 or CHP-HER2 before tumor challenge, successfully rejected HER2ィイD1+ィエD1 tumors. The complete rejection of tumors implantation. In the effector phase of in vino tumor rejection, CDィイD1+ィエD1 T cells played a major role.
Mice were immunized with CHP-HER2 and proliferative response of CD8ィイD1+ィエD1 T cells was examined by stimulating them with DCs pretreated with CHP-HER2, which shows that DCs can incorporate CHP-HER2 efficiently and present cognate peptides to CD8ィイD1+ィエD1 T cells after appropriate processing. We further examined whether DCs treated ex vivo with CHP-HER2 could be used as vaccine against HER2 expressing tumor cells. HER2 expressing tumor cells were inoculated into mice, and 10 days later, vaccinated with CHP-HER2 pretreated with CHP-HER2 was started. Only in the group of mice vaccinated with CHP-HER2 pretreated DCs, complete eradication of tumor was observed. Human bone marrow-derived dendritic cells cocultured with CHP-HER2 became susceptible to a HLA-A24 restricted CTL clone specific for HER2p63-71 and also induced its proliferation.
