Syngeneic B16-F1 cells are more efficient than allogeneic Cloudman cells as antigen source in DC-based vaccination in the B16-F1 murine melanoma model
A major obstacle to obtaining relevant results in cancer vaccination has been the lack of identification of immunogenic antigens. Dendritic cell (DC)-based cancer vaccines used preventively may afford protection against tumor inoculation, but the effect of antigen choice on anti-tumor protection is...

| Resumo: | A major obstacle to obtaining relevant results in cancer vaccination has been the lack of identification of immunogenic antigens. Dendritic cell (DC)-based cancer vaccines used preventively may afford protection against tumor inoculation, but the effect of antigen choice on anti-tumor protection is not clear. When using irradiated syngeneic tumor cells to load DCs, tumor self-antigens are provided, including tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) and neoantigens generated by tumor mutations. On the other hand, allogeneic tumor cells could only supply shared TAAs. To assess the advantages of each source in protective vaccination, we analyzed in C57BL/6 mice the effect of loading DCs with irradiated syngeneic B16-F1 or allogeneic Cloudman melanoma cells; both cell lines were characterized by whole exome sequencing and RNAseq. Tumor cell components from the two irradiated cell lines were efficiently internalized by DCs, and transported to MHC-class II positive tubulovesicular compartments (MIICs). DCs loaded with allogeneic irradiated Cloudman cells (DC-ApoNecALLO) induced a partially effective anti-melanoma protection, although Cloudman and B16-F1 cells share the expression of melanocyte differentiation antigens (MDAs), cancer-testis antigens (CTAs) and other TAAs. DCs loaded with syngeneic B16-F1 cells (DC-ApoNecSYN) established a more potent and long-lasting protection and induced a humoral anti-B16F1 response, thus suggesting that neoepitopes are needed for inducing long-lasting protection. |
