Healthy individuals have T-cell and antibody responses to the tumor antigen cyclin B1 that when elicited in mice protect from cancer

Abstract: We previously identified the aberrantly expressed cell cycle regulator cyclin B1 as a tumor antigen recognized by antibodies and T cells from patients with breast, lung, and head and neck cancers. Ordinarily expressed only transiently in the G2/M stage of the cell cycle in normal cells, cyclin B1 is constitutively expressed at high levels in the cytoplasm of these and many other tumor types, leading to its recognition by the cancer patient's immune system. We report here an unexpected observation that cyclin B… Show more

“…We also confirmed the spontaneous CCNB1-specific IgG response observed in healthy and cancer patients (30,31,(53)(54)(55)). We observed a similar level of anti-CCNB1 Abs in patients and healthy donors (31).…”

“…The four healthy donors respond mainly to six peptides, namely 199-216, 207-221, 212-226, 221-235, 225-239, and 241-258. This is clearly reminiscent of a previous study showing that five healthy donors reacted in similar short-term T cell assays to three overlapping peptides (215-229, 219-233, and 223-234) (30). We therefore extended the sequence containing the previously identified peptides (30) with peptides located on both sides of it.…”
