Use of anti-neoepitope antibodies for the analysis of degradative events in cartilage and the molecular basis for neoepitope specificity.
Degradation of the cartilage proteoglycan, aggrecan, is an essential aspect of normal growth and development, and of joint pathology. The roles of different proteolytic enzymes in this process can be determined from the sites of cleavage in the aggrecan core protein, which generates novel termini (neoepitopes). Antibodies specific for the different neoepitopes generated by such cleavage events ...
متن کاملT cell neoepitope discovery in colorectal cancer by high throughput profiling of somatic mutations in expressed genes
OBJECTIVE Patient-specific (unique) tumour antigens, encoded by somatically mutated cancer genes, generate neoepitopes that are implicated in the induction of tumour-controlling T cell responses. Recent advancements in massive DNA sequencing combined with robust T cell epitope predictions have allowed their systematic identification in several malignancies. DESIGN We undertook the identificat...
متن کاملTargeting the Heterogeneity of Cancer with Individualized Neoepitope Vaccines.
Somatic mutations binding to the patient's MHC and recognized by autologous T cells (neoepitopes) are ideal cancer vaccine targets. They combine a favorable safety profile due to a lack of expression in healthy tissues with a high likelihood of immunogenicity, as T cells recognizing neoepitopes are not shaped by central immune tolerance. Proteins mutated in cancer (neoantigens) shared by patien...
متن کاملEthnobotany, Ethnopharmacology and Drug Discovery
This manuscript is a review of a number of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology texts and papers in order to arrive at current understanding and scope of ethnobotany and ethnopharmacology. It includes either a brief definition of both fields and presenting some examples on them. Also it has a glimpse on the geographical coverage of research works throughout the world, important issue of prope...
متن کاملA Recurrent Mutation in Anaplastic Lymphoma Kinase with Distinct Neoepitope Conformations
The identification of recurrent human leukocyte antigen (HLA) neoepitopes driving T cell responses against tumors poses a significant bottleneck in the development of approaches for precision cancer therapeutics. Here, we employ a bioinformatics method, Prediction of T Cell Epitopes for Cancer Therapy, to analyze sequencing data from neuroblastoma patients and identify a recurrent anaplastic ly...
