Cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) play an important role in the destruction of immunogenic tumors. A novel category of target antigens for CTL concerns normal differentiation antigens as most clearly demonstrated in human melanoma. In the case of B-cell cancers, differentiation antigens normally expressed on B cells may be useful targets. In this report, we have focused on the murine B-cell differentiation antigens CD19 and CD20. We have identified 18 peptide sequences on the basis of major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class-I binding-motifs as candidates for the induction of autoreactive CTL. Six of the peptides were capable of binding efficiently to either Kb or Db and were subsequently used for in vivo induction of CTL. Vaccination with each of three peptides led to peptide-specific CTL. Two peptides were derived from the mCD20 antigen and one from the mCD19 antigen. CTL specific for the mCD19-derived peptide were also capable of killing a syngeneic B-cell tumor line. Recognition of the peptide as well as the tumor cells was shown to be Kb restricted. This is the first report to show that autoreactive CTL recognizing peptides derived from B-cell-specific differentiation antigens can be generated by vaccination with a synthetic peptide.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D008810 Mice, Inbred C57BL One of the first INBRED MOUSE STRAINS to be sequenced. This strain is commonly used as genetic background for transgenic mouse models. Refractory to many tumors, this strain is also preferred model for studying role of genetic variations in development of diseases. Mice, C57BL,Mouse, C57BL,Mouse, Inbred C57BL,C57BL Mice,C57BL Mice, Inbred,C57BL Mouse,C57BL Mouse, Inbred,Inbred C57BL Mice,Inbred C57BL Mouse
D010455 Peptides Members of the class of compounds composed of AMINO ACIDS joined together by peptide bonds between adjacent amino acids into linear, branched or cyclical structures. OLIGOPEPTIDES are composed of approximately 2-12 amino acids. Polypeptides are composed of approximately 13 or more amino acids. PROTEINS are considered to be larger versions of peptides that can form into complex structures such as ENZYMES and RECEPTORS. Peptide,Polypeptide,Polypeptides
D003602 Cytotoxicity, Immunologic The phenomenon of target cell destruction by immunologically active effector cells. It may be brought about directly by sensitized T-lymphocytes or by lymphoid or myeloid "killer" cells, or it may be mediated by cytotoxic antibody, cytotoxic factor released by lymphoid cells, or complement.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D001402 B-Lymphocytes Lymphoid cells concerned with humoral immunity. They are short-lived cells resembling bursa-derived lymphocytes of birds in their production of immunoglobulin upon appropriate stimulation.

D013602 T-Lymphocytes, Cytotoxic Immunized T-lymphocytes which can directly destroy appropriate target cells. These cytotoxic lymphocytes may be generated in vitro in mixed lymphocyte cultures (MLC), in vivo during a graft-versus-host (GVH) reaction, or after immunization with an allograft, tumor cell or virally transformed or chemically modified target cell. The lytic phenomenon is sometimes referred to as cell-mediated lympholysis (CML). These CD8-positive cells are distinct from NATURAL KILLER CELLS and NATURAL KILLER T-CELLS. There are two effector phenotypes: TC1 and TC2.
