Autophagy Creates a CTL Epitope That Mimics Tumor-Associated Antigens
The detailed mechanisms responsible for processing tumor-associated antigens and presenting them to CTLs remain to be fully elucidated. In this study, we demonstrate a unique CTL epitope generated from the ubiquitous protein puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase, which is presented via HLA-A24 on leukemic and pancreatic cancer cells but not on normal fibroblasts or EBV-transformed B lymphoblastoid...
متن کاملCarcinoid Tumor-Associated Paraneoplastic Polyneuropathy that Mimics Guillain-Barre Syndrome.
Paraneoplastic polyneuropathies are among the most common distal neurological complications of systemic cancer on the nervous system. All peripheral neuropathy types, such as demyelinating, axonal, motor, sensory, or autonomic, can present in association with cancer and can have a paraneoplastic etiology (1). Classical paraneoplastic peripheral neuropathy is typically a sensory neuropathy with ...
متن کاملInfective endocarditis mimics ANCA associated glomerulonephritis
Background: Sub-acute bacterial endocarditis (SBE) rarely presents with features of a small vessel vasculitis. Patients with SBE can also develop multiple serological abnormalities including ANCA. In this report, we present a case of infective endocarditis mimicked ANCA associated glomerulonephritis.Case presentation: A 57-year old male with a clinical picture of rapidly progressive renal failu...
متن کاملA viral epitope that mimics a self antigen can accelerate but not initiate autoimmune diabetes.
We document here that infection of prediabetic mice with a virus expressing an H-2Kb-restricted mimic ligand to a self epitope present on beta cells accelerates the development of autoimmune diabetes. Immunization with the mimic ligand expanded autoreactive T cell populations, which was followed by their trafficking to the islets, as visualized in situ by tetramer staining. In contrast, the mim...
متن کاملSynthetic tumor-associated glycopeptide antigens.
Glycopeptides with TN antigen (GalNAc)Ser/Thr and T-antigen structures (beta Gall-3GalNAc)Ser/Thr, described as tumor-associated antigens, were synthesized and coupled to bovine serum albumin. Alternatively, synthetic methods for the construction of beta-anomeric analogues of the TN and T-antigen glycopeptides were developed, aiming at antigenic structures having a varied stereochemistry of the...
