RESUMEN
Emerging evidence suggests that tumor-specific neoantigens are ideal targets for cancer immunotherapy. However, how to predict tumor neoantigens based on translatome data remains obscure. Through the extraction of ribosome-nascent chain complexes (RNCs) from LLC cells, followed by RNC-mRNA extraction, RNC-mRNA sequencing, and comprehensive bioinformatic analysis, we successfully identified proteins undergoing translatome and exhibiting mutations in the cells. Subsequently, novel antigens identification was analyzed by the interaction between their high affinity and the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC). Neoantigens immunogenicity was analyzed by enzyme-linked immunospot assay (ELISpot). Finally, in vivo experiments in mice were conducted to evaluate the antitumor effects of translatome-derived neoantigen peptides on lung cancer. The results showed that ten neoantigen peptides were identified and synthesized by translatome data from LLC cells; 8 out of the 10 neoantigens had strong immunogenicity. The neoantigen peptide vaccine group exhibited significant tumor growth inhibition effect. In conclusion, neoantigen peptide vaccine derived from the translatome of lung cancer exhibited significant tumor growth inhibition effect.
