Research Abstract

Currently, cancer antigen-derived T cell epitope peptide vaccines are under development and clinical trials have already been performed. Unfortunately, outcomes have been disappointing. To address these issues, we focused on invariant NKT cells that recognize alpha-GalCer presented by CD1d. We established iNKT cell-based anti-tumor effector T cells that express a tumor reactive T cell receptor (TCR). The TCR-transduced CD4-CD8- (DN) iNKT cells were excellent for tumor antigen-specific cytotoxicity. In contrast, the TCR-transduced CD4+CD8- (CD4) iNKT cells acted as a cellular adjuvant inducing robust IL-12p70 production in alpha-GalCer-loaded dendritic cells. Tumor-reactive TCR-expressing iNKT cell that exert cytotoxic activity and adjuvant activity may be a powerful tool for cancer immunotherapy.
