What is more exciting at the moment due to fact it is actually about to enter the clinic is this:
Citrullination is a widely expressed, novel, siPTM that is a potent target for cancer vaccines.
•
There is a repertoire of cytotoxic CD4+ T cells in mice and humans that recognizes citrullinated epitopes
•
Tumors over-express PAD enzymes
•
Inflammation and stress induces high levels of autophagy and MHC class II presentation of citrullinated epitopes on tumors
•
Citrullinated peptides induce potent anti-tumour immunity with no evidence of associated toxicity and will shortly enter the clinic.
Welcome to Scancell........... game changer.... very possibly
