摘要:
A novel gene (designated 213P1F11) and its encoded protein, and variants thereof, are described wherein 213P1F11 exhibits tissue specific expression in normal adult tissue, and is aberrantly expressed in the cancers listed in Table I. Consequently, 213P1F11 provides a diagnostic, prognostic, prophylactic and/or therapeutic target for cancer. The 213P1F11 gene or fragment thereof, or its encoded protein, or variants thereof, or a fragment thereof, can be used to elicit a humoral or cellular immune response; antibodies or T cells reactive with 213P1F11 can be used in active or passive immunization.

摘要:
The present invention relates to the field of molecular biology and immunology. In particular it relates to vaccines and methods for providing vaccines which elicit immune responses when administered to a mammal, in particular a human. The preferred elicited immune response is a T cell response, elicited by peptide T cell epitopes. These vaccines find their application in many fields ranging from cancer treatments to treatments of prophylaxis of infectious diseases such as Aids. The present invention provides novel methods for selecting the peptide sequences from an intact antigen which will lead to a proper (T cell) immune response upon administration in a suitable vehicle. The epitopes and vaccines are, of course, also part of the present invention.

摘要:
The compositions and methods of the present invention are based, in part, on a gene designated prostate leucine zipper (PrLZ) and the sequences that mediate its expression. The presence of the leucine zipper indicates that PrLZ encodes a protein that interacts with other proteins. Methods to inhibit the activity of PrLZ by identifying and inhibiting the interaction between PrLZ and such binding partners are within the scope of the invention, as are methods of inhibiting PrLZ in other ways (by, for example, inhibiting its expression with antisense molecules or siRNAs or inhibiting its activity with, for example, anti-PrLZ antibodies). Such inhibition is useful in the treatment of cancers or dysplasias affecting PrLZ-positive tissues, such as those in the prostate.
