Patent

CA 2445018

The invention relates to a universal tumour-associated oligopeptide, which is recognised by CD8-positive cytotoxic T-lymphocytes (CTL) as a peptide antigen and which causes a CTL-induced lysis and/or apoptosis of tumour or leukaemia cells. The oligopeptide has the amino acid sequence LLGDLFGV, which corresponds to the amino acid positions 81 to 88 of the hdm2 proto- oncoprotein, or an amino acid sequence that can be derived from said sequence, which constitutes the functional equivalent of the amino acid sequence LLGDLFGV. Said oligopeptide constitutes an epitope for CD8-positive CTLs and is suitable for inducing a restricted immune response of CD8-positive CTLs to the human leukocyte antigen of the molecular group MHC class I, allelomorph variant A2, against tumour and leukaemia cells.

L'invention concerne un oligopeptide universel associé aux tumeurs, reconnu en tant qu'antigène peptidique par des lymphocytes T cytotoxiques CD8-positifs (ZTL), et provoquant une lyse et/ou une apoptose de cellules tumorales ou leucémiques induite par ZTL. Ledit oligopeptide présente la séquence d'acides aminés LLGDLFGV correspondant aux positions 81 à 88 des acides aminés de la proto-oncoprotéine hdm2, ou une séquence d'acides aminés dérivée représentant un équivalent fonctionnel de la séquence d'acides aminés LLGDLFGV. Ledit oligopeptide représente un épitope de ZTL CD8-positifs, et peut provoquer une réponse immunitaire restreinte à l'antigène de leucocytes humain du groupe moléculaire <= MHC classe I >=, allélomorphe A2, de ZTL CD8-positifs contre des cellules tumorales et leucémiques.
