Dendritic cells (DCs) are professional antigen-presenting cells that process and present antigenic peptides and are capable of generating potent T-cell immunity. A murine tumor model was developed to evaluate methods of genetic immunization to the human MART-1/Melan-A (MART-1) melanoma antigen. A poorly immunogenic murine fibrosarcoma line (NFSA) was stably transfected with the MART-1 gene. This transfected tumor [NFSA(MART1)] grows progressively in C3Hf/Kam/Sed (H-2k) mice. Partial protection against a challenge with NFSA-(MART1) could be achieved with i.m. injections of a MART-1 expression plasmid or with systemic administration of an adenovirus vector expressing MART-1. However, superior protection was achieved when granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor/interleukin-4-differentiated murine DCs transduced with an adenovirus vector expressing MART-1 were used for immunization. Both partial and complete protection could be achieved with i.v. administration of MART-1-engineered DCs. Splenocytes from immunized mice contained MHC class I-restricted CTLs specific for MART-1. This preclinical model of genetic immunization supports a therapeutic strategy for human melanoma.
