Abstract: | The protocol describes the procedure of antigen-specific T cell generation and TCR identification for the use in adoptive T cell therapy. We describe two paths of generating antigen-specific T cells, first, T cell stimulation with autologous dendritic cells pulsed with antigen peptide, second, in vivo T cell stimulation with peptide or DNA by gene gun application in a suitable mouse model followed by in vitro enrichment of peptide-reactive T cells. Peptide-stimulated T cells are sorted by fluorescence-activated cell sorting for CD107α or IFNγ expression and subsequently isolated RNA is used in a 5' rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE )-PCR specific for TCR for TCR chain identification. After retroviral cloning, it is re-expressed on human T cells to test its applicability in adoptive T cell therapy. |
