'Antigen processing or cytosolic' pathway is an immunological process that prepares antigens for presentation to special cells of the immune system called T lymphocytes. It is considered to be a stage of antigen presentation pathways. This process involves two distinct pathways for processing of antigens from an organism's own (self) proteins or intracellular pathogens (e.g. viruses), or from phagocytosed pathogens (e.g. bacteria); subsequent presentation of these antigens on class I or class II major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules is dependent on which pathway is used. Both MHC class I and II are required to bind antigen before they are stably expressed on a cell surface. MHC I antigen presentation typically (considering cross-presentation) involves the endogenous pathway of antigen processing, and MHC II antigen presentation involves the exogenous pathway of antigen processing. Cross-presentation involves parts of the exogenous and the endogenous pathways but ultimately involves the latter portion of the endogenous pathway (e.g. proteolysis of antigens for binding to MHC I molecules).
Reagents and methods for treating cancer and autoimmune disease
PendingUS20260146087A1Immunoglobulin superfamilyAntibody mimetics/scaffoldsImmunologic disordersAutoimmune condition
Disclosed herein are methods for treating cancer by administering to a subject having cancer antibodies against one or more of CD300c, BTN5 (Erythroid membrane-associated protein), TAPBPL (antigen processing (TAP) binding protein like protein), Skint8 (selection and upkeep of intraepithelial T cells 8 protein), and CD300f. Also disclosed herein are methods for treating autoimmune diseases by administering to a subject having an autoimmune disease an IgV domain, or a nucleic acid encoding an IgV domain, from one or more of CD300c, BTN5, TAPBPL, Skint8, and CD300f. Also disclosed herein are antibodies against CD300c and TAPBPL, and fusion proteins that can be used in the methods for treating autoimmune disease.

Gp96 tumor neoantigen prediction method and application
The application discloses a gp96 tumor neoantigen prediction method and application thereof, and relates to the technical field of tumor neoantigen prediction. The method comprises the following steps: S1, isolation and purification of gp96-tumor polypeptide complexes; S2, dissociation and purification of polypeptides; S3, mass spectrometric identification and sequence analysis of mutant peptides; S4, MHC affinity prediction; and S5, immunogenicity verification. The application takes gp96 as a natural biological concentrator, the captured polypeptides include products in a natural antigen processing path of tumor cells, and antigen peptide segments with potential immunological significance are enriched. In combination with MHC affinity prediction and immunogenicity function verification, the true positive rate of neoantigen screening is significantly improved. In a verification experiment on colon cancer samples, among 7 candidate neoantigens obtained through prediction, 4 can significantly activate autologous T cells of a patient to secrete IFN-gamma, and show a high immunogenicity verification positive rate.
