ABSTRACT: Efficient processing of target antigens by the ubiquitin-proteasome-system (UPS) is essential for treatment of cancers by T cell therapies. However, immune escape due to impaired expression of IFN-γ-inducible components of the antigen presentation machinery and consequent inefficient processing of HLA-dependent tumor epitopes can be one important reason for failure of such therapies. Here, we show that repeated short-term co-cultures of Melan-A/MART-1 tumor antigen-expressing melanoma cells with Melan-A/MART-1 (26-35)-specific CTL led to the generation of clones resistant to CTL-mediated cell death. To determine which of the UPS components and its associated pathways was responsible for CTL escape; three UKRV-Mel-15a clones were subjected to microarray gene expression analysis. Three UKRV-Mel-15a-derived melanoma clones were isolated following three repeated short-term exposures to Melan-A/MART (26-35) CTL and harvested for RNA extraction and hybridization on Affymetrix microarrays.
