Abstract
The immune effect and safety evaluation of rAAV (recombinant adeno-associated virus)-containing Bcsg1 (breast cancer-specific gene 1) (rAAV/Bcsg1)-transfected DC (dendritic cell) (rAAV/Bcsg1-DC) vaccine in immunotherapy for (BCSG1) (+) BC was assessed. Immune effect of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) on Bcsg1 (+) BC cells, and rAAV gene residuals in mature CTL cells and culture medium were determined. Nude mouse xenograft tumor model was established to assess the inhibition effects of DC-activated CTLs on tumor growth. DC cell surface markers were highly expressed in rAAV/Bcsg1 group and lysate-DC group, and rAAV/Bcsg1-DC-CTL showed stronger cytotoxic activity targeting Bcsg1 (+) BC cells. The rAAV/Bcsg1-DC vaccine-treated groups showed lower mean tumor weight, higher tumor inhibition rates and slower tumor growth. rAAV/Bcsg1-DC can induce highly efficient CTL-targeting Bcsg1 antigen without rAAV gene residuals.Entities:
