CpG ODNs induce immunity against a TERT-derived modified cryptic MHC class I-restricted epitope



May 18th, 2006

CpG oligodeoxynucleotides (ODN) activate dendritic cells in vivo and induce a functional and protective vaccine immunity against a TERT-derived modified cryptic MHC class I-restricted epitope.

According to recent research from France, "The use of synthetic peptides derived from tumor-associated antigens is attractive for the development of antitumoral vaccines as far as strong adjuvants are found to render them immunogenic. We investigated the possibility to enhance the CD8 response against the human and mouse shared TERT572y HLA-A*0201 restricted modified cryptic peptide by using ODN-CpG as adjuvant."

"Humanized transgenic mice were...
