Cancer Neoantigens: A Promising Source of Immunogens for Cancer Immunotherapy
Recent progress in cancer immunotherapy has been remarkable, especially the clinical development of immune checkpoint inhibitors, such as anti-CTLA-4 and anti-PD-1 antibodies. The success of these agents has revealed the importance of anti-tumor immune activities in curing cancers. Cancer peptide vaccines constitute another approach to eliciting and boosting anti-tumor immune responses. While c...
متن کاملNeoantigens in cancer immunotherapy.
The clinical relevance of T cells in the control of a diverse set of human cancers is now beyond doubt. However, the nature of the antigens that allow the immune system to distinguish cancer cells from noncancer cells has long remained obscure. Recent technological innovations have made it possible to dissect the immune response to patient-specific neoantigens that arise as a consequence of tum...
متن کاملThe Use of Sweet Almond Meal as a Protein Source in Japanese Quails Diets
In the first experiment, the chemical composition, apparent metabolizable energy (AME), AME corrected for nitrogen (AMEn), true metabolizable energy (TME), TME corrected for nitrogen (TMEn) values of the sweet almond meal were determined in adult Leghorn cockerels. The second experiment was performed to evaluate the effects of different levels of sweet almond meal at 0, 100, 200 and 300 g/kg on...
متن کاملLiquid Biopsy as a Minimally Invasive Source of Thyroid Cancer Genetic and Epigenetic Alterations
In the blood of cancer patients, some nucleic acid fragments and tumor cells can be found that make it possible to trace tumor changes through a simple blood test called “liquid biopsy”. The main components of liquid biopsy are fragments of DNA and RNA shed by tumors into the bloodstream and circulate freely( ctDNAs and ctRNAs). tumor cells which are shed into the blood (circulating tumor cells...
متن کاملShared cancer neoantigens: Making private matters public.
In this issue of JEM, Chheda et al. (https://doi.org/10.1084/jem.20171046) report that a conserved hotspot mutation associated with an aggressive form of brain cancer generates an immunogenic T cell epitope restricted by a common HLA subtype, thereby creating a "public" neoantigen.
