摘要:
The invention involves a nonapeptide derived from the tumor rejection antigen precursor encoded by gene MAGE-3. This nonapeptide is presented by the HLA molecule HLA-A1. The resulting complexes are identified by cytolytic T cells. Such recognition may be used in diagnostics, or therapeutically.
摘要:
The invention involves the identification of peptides which complex with HLA-Cw*16 molecules, and which may then provoke lysis of the cells to which they bind, by cytolytic T cells. Diagnostic and therapeutic uses are described.
摘要:
The invention describes sdp3.8 tumor associated nucleic acids, including fragments and biologically functional variants thereof. Also included are polypeptides and fragments thereof encoded by such nucleic acids, and antibodies relating thereto. Methods and products also are provided for diagnosing and treating conditions characterized by expression of a sdp3.8 gene product.
摘要:
The invention relates to nucleic acid molecules which code for the tumor rejection antigen precursor MAGE-3. Also disclosed are vectors, cell lines, and so forth, which utilize the nucleic acid molecule, and optionally, molecules coding for human leukocyte antigen HLA-A1. Uses of these materials in therapeutic and diagnostic contexts are also a part of the invention.
摘要:
The invention involves nonapeptides bound by HLA molecules such as HLA-A1. The resulting complexes are identified by cytolytic T cells. Such recognition may be used in diagnostics, or therapeutically.
摘要:
Tumor rejection antigens presented by HLA-B44 molecules are described. These peptides are useful in diagnostic and therapeutic methodologies. The tumor rejection antigens are not derived from tyrosinase, which has previously been identified as a tumor rejection antigen precursor processed to an antigen presented by HLA-B44.
摘要:
A family of tumor rejection antigen precursors, and the nucleic acid molecules which code for them, are disclosed. These tumor rejection antigen precursors are referred to as BAGE tumor rejection antigen precursors, and the nucleic acid molecules which code for them are referred to as BAGE coding molecules. Various diagnostic and therapeutic uses of the coding sequences and the tumor rejection antigen precursor molecules are described.

摘要:
The invention describes peptides derived from tumor rejection antigen precursor MAGE-2. These peptides bind with HLA-A2 molecules, thus presenting complexes which provoke cytolytic T cell production. The resulting "CTLs" are specific for complexes of HLA-A2 and the peptide. The complexes can be used to generate monoclonal antibodies. The cytolytic T cells produced may be used in the context of immunotherapy, such as adoptive transfer.
摘要:
Tumor rejection antigens derived from tumor rejection precursor MAGE-3 have been identified. These "TRAS" bind to the MHC-class I molecule HLA-A2, and the resulting complexes stimulate the production of cytolytic T cell clones which lyse the presenting cells. The peptides and complexes may be used diagnostically, therapeutically, and as immunogens for the production of antibodies, or as targets for the generation of cytolytic T cell clones.
