Abstract: Background:To develop a vaccine-based immunotherapy for sarcoma,we evaluated a mixture of heat shock proteins (mHSPs) as a vaccine for sarcoma treatment in a mouse model.Heat shock protein/peptides (HSP/Ps) are autoimmune factors that can induce both adaptive and innate immune responses;HSP/Ps isolated from tumors can induce antitumor immune activity when used as vaccines.Methods:In this study,we evaluated the effects of mHSP/Ps on prophylactic antitumor immunity.We extracted mHSP/Ps,including HSP60,HSP70,GP96,and HSP l 10,from the mouse sarcoma cell lines S 180 and MCA207 using chromatography.The immunity induced by mHSP/Ps was assessed using flow cytometry,ELISPOT,lactate dehydrogenase release,and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.Results:Of S180 sarcoma-beating mice immunized with mHSP/Ps isolated from S180 cells,41.2% showed tumor regression and long-term survival,with a tumor growth inhibition rate of 82.3% at 30 days.Of MCA207 sarcoma-bearing mice immunized with mHSP/Ps isolated from MCA207 cells,50% showed tumor regression and long-term survival with a tumor growth inhibition rate of 79.3%.All control mice died within 40 days.The proportions of natural killer cells,CD8+,and interferon-γ-secreting cells and tumor-specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte activity were increased in the immunized group.Conclusions:Vaccination with a polyvalent mHSP/P cancer vaccine can induce an immunological response and a marked antitumor response to autologous tumors.This mHSP/P vaccine exerted greater antitumor effects than did HSPT0,HSP60,or tumor lysates alone.
