Healthy individuals have T-cell and antibody responses to the tumor antigen cyclin B1 that when elicited in mice protect from cancer
3 Aug 2009
Abstract excerpt
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...
