Abstrakt: Breast cancer stands as a formidable global health challenge for women. While neoantigens exhibit efficacy in activating T cells specific to cancer and instigating anti-tumor immune responses, the accuracy of neoantigen prediction remains suboptimal. In this study, we identified neoantigens from the patient-derived breast cancer cells, PC-B-142CA and PC-B-148CA cells, utilizing whole-genome and RNA sequencing. The pVAC-Seq pipeline was employed, with minor modification incorporating criteria (1) binding affinity of mutant (MT) peptide with HLA (IC 50 MT) ≤ 500 nm in 3 of 5 algorithms and (2) IC 50 wild type (WT)/MT > 1. Sequencing results unveiled 2513 and 3490 somatic mutations, and 646 and 652 non-synonymous mutations in PC-B-142CA and PC-B-148CA, respectively. We selected the top 3 neoantigens to perform molecular dynamic simulation and synthesized 9-12 amino acid neoantigen peptides, which were then pulsed onto healthy donor peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Results demonstrated that T cells activated by ADGRL1 E274K , PARP1 E619K , and SEC14L2 R43Q peptides identified from PC-B-142CA exhibited significantly increased production of interferon-gamma (IFN-γ), while PARP1 E619K and SEC14L2 R43Q peptides induced the expression of CD107a on T cells. The % tumor cell lysis was notably enhanced by T cells activated with MT peptides across all three healthy donors. Moreover, ALKBH6 V83M and GAA I823T peptides from PC-B-148CA remarkably stimulated IFN-γ- and CD107a-positive T cells, displaying high cell-killing activity against target cancer cells. In summary, our findings underscore the successful identification of neoantigens with anti-tumor T cell functions and highlight the potential of personalized neoantigens as a promising avenue for breast cancer treatment.
