Towards the goal of identifying tumor-rejection antigens on eradicated tumors in bone and soft tissue sarcomas, we evaluated the immune response against antigens presented by lost HLA class I molecules. Tumor specimens and peripheral blood samples were obtained from a 70-year-old woman with pleomorphic malignant fibrous histiocytoma. Over 1-year culture, a tumor cell line (MFH2004) was established. A B-cell line infected with Epstein-Barr virus (B2004-EBV) was developed from the blood samples. HLA genotypes of B2004-EBVcells were A*0206/2402, B*4006/4601, and C*0102/0801, whereas MFH2004 cells were defective for A*0206, B*4006, and C*0102. Loss of HLA-A2 expression was also proved immunohistochemically in the primary tumor tissues. Lost HLA-A2 in MFH2004 cells was retrieved by transfection of HLA-A*0206 cDNA to develop MFH2004-A2. Attempts to induce CTLs by mixed culture with autologous T cells and MFH2004 cells resulted in failure. In contrast, those with MFH2004-A2 induced CTL clones CTL2004-c6 and CTL2004-c17. These CTL clones specifically killed MFH2004-A2 but not MFH2004 or B2004-EBV in an HLA-A2-restricted manner. These findings suggest that CTL2004-c6 and CTL2004-c17 recognize autologous tumor-rejection antigens presented by HLA-A*0206, which may have been expressed by tumor cells that had been eradicated by the host's immunosurveillance system.
