Abstract:
Objective: To determine the adjuvant activity of recombinant human HSP70D protein. Methods: Dendritic cells were cultured in vitro , rhHSP70D was added into the culture medium, the cytokine secretion and maturation of dendritic cells(DC) stimulated by rhHSP70D were measured; C57BL/6 mice were immunized with rhHSP70D OVA 257 264 complexs reconstituted in vitro , and the protective antigen specific immune response against tumor challenge were evaluated in the immunized mice. Results: rhHSP70D stimulated human DC to secrete IL 1?, IL 12 p70 and TNF ?, up regulated the HLA DR,CD86 and CD40 expression on DC and improved the antigen presentation function of DC; After immunization with the hybrid of rhHSP70D and OVA 257 264 , the mice were able to resist the challenge of E. G7 OVA, which was a tumor cell line expressing model antigen OVA. Conclusion: rhHSP70D can induce maturation of DC, immunization of rhHSP70D peptide complexs can induce antigen specific immune response, suggesting that rhHSP70D may be a new adjuvant in immunotherapy of the cancer and infection diseases.
