摘要

The Tn antigen (α-GalNAc-O-Ser/Thr) is one of the most specific human cancer-associated structures. This antigen, together with mucins, the major carriers of O-glycosylated tumor antigens in adenocarcinomas, are being evaluated as anti-cancer immunotherapeutic targets. In particular, the MUC6 protein, which is normally expressed only in gastric tissues, has been detected in intestinal, pulmonary, colorectal, and breast carcinomas. To develop anti-cancer vaccines based on the Tn antigen, we produced MUC6 proteins with different Tn density by using mixtures of recombinant ppGalNAc-T1, -T2, and -T7. The obtained glycoproteins were characterized and analyzed for their immunological properties, as compared with the non-glycosylated MUC6. We show that these various MUC6:Tn glycoproteins were well recognized by both MUC6 and Tn-specific antibodies. However, Tn glycosylation of the MUC6 protein strongly affected their immunogenicity by partially abrogating Th1 cell responses, and promoting IL-17 responses. Moreover, the non-glycosylated MUC6 was more efficiently presented than MUC6:Tn glycoproteins to specific T CD4+ hybridomas, suggesting that Tn glycosylation may affect MUC6 processing or MHC binding of the processed peptides. In conclusion, our results indicate that Tn glycosylation of the MUC6 protein strongly affects its B and T cell immunogenicity, and might favor immune escape of tumor cells.
