Cancer testis antigen Sperm Protein 17 as a new target for triple negative breast cancer immunotherapy
Breast carcinoma is a major health issue for millions of women. Current therapies have serious side effects, and are only partially effective in patients with metastatic tumors. Thus, the need for novel and less toxic therapies is urgent. Moreover, hormonal and antibody therapies effective in other subtypes are not effective in Triple Negative Breast Cancer (TNBC). Immunotherapeutic strategies ...
متن کاملCancer testis antigen and immunotherapy
The identification of cancer testis (CT) antigens has been an important advance in determining potential targets for cancer immunotherapy. Multiple previous studies have shown that CT antigen vaccines, using both peptides and dendritic cell vaccines, can elicit clinical and immunologic responses in several different tumors. This review details the expression of melanoma antigen family A, 1 (MAG...
متن کاملCABYR is a novel cancer-testis antigen in lung cancer.
PURPOSE Cancer-testis (CT) antigens are often expressed in a proportion of tumors of various types. Their restricted normal tissue expression and immunogenicity make them potential targets for immunotherapy. CABYR is a calcium-binding tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated fibrous sheath protein initially reported to be testis specific and subsequently shown to be present in brain tumors. This stud...
متن کاملMMP11: a novel target antigen for cancer immunotherapy.
PURPOSE Matrix metalloproteinases (MMP) are zinc-dependent endopeptidases that mediate numerous physiologic and pathologic processes, including matrix degradation, tissue remodeling, inflammation, and tumor metastasis. To develop a vaccine targeting stromal antigens expressed by cancer-associated fibroblasts, we focused on MMP11 (or stromelysin 3). MMP11 expression correlates with aggressive pr...
متن کاملThe novel cancer-testis antigen A-kinase anchor protein 4 (AKAP4) is a potential target for immunotherapy of ovarian serous carcinoma
Ovarian cancer is one of the neoplasms affecting the reproductive tract associated with high mortality rate because of limited therapeutic options and an elevated incidence of chemoresistance and recurrence. In this context, immunotherapy may constitute a promising approach to improve survival rates and clinical outcome, raising the need for specific target antigens. Cancer-testis antigens (CTA...
