Induced pluripotent stem cell-derived dendritic cell vaccine therapy genetically modified on the ubiquitin-proteasome system
We previously reported that dendritic cells (DCs) transduced with the full-length tumor-associated antigen (TAA) gene induced TAA-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) to elicit antitumor responses. To overcome the issue of quantity and quality of DCs required for DC vaccine therapy, we focused on induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) as a new tool for obtaining DCs and reported efficacy of iPSCs-derived DCs (iPSDCs). However, in clinical application of iPSDC vaccine therapy, further enhancement of the antitumor effect is necessary. In this study, we targeted mesothelin (MSLN) as a potentially useful TAA, and focused on the ubiquitin-proteasome system to enhance antigen-presenting ability of iPSDCs. The CTLs induced by iPSDCs transduced with MSLN gene (iPSDCs-MSLN) from healthy donors showed cytotoxic activity against autologous lymphoblastoid cells (LCLs) expressing MSLN (LCLs-MSLN). The CTLs induced by iPSDCs transduced ubiquitin-MSLN fusion gene exhibited higher cytotoxic activity against LCLs-MSLN than the CTLs induced by iPSDCs-MSLN. The current study was designed that peripheral T-cell tolerance to MSLN could be overcome by the immunization of genetically modified iPSDCs simultaneously expressing ubiquitin and MSLN, leading to a strong cytotoxicity against tumors endogenously expressing MSLN. Therefore, this strategy may be promising for clinical application as an effective cancer vaccine therapy.
期刊介绍:
Gene Therapy covers both the research and clinical applications of novel therapeutic techniques based on a genetic component. Over the last few decades, significant advances in technologies ranging from identifying novel genetic targets that cause disease through to clinical studies, which show therapeutic benefit, have elevated this multidisciplinary field to the forefront of modern medicine.
