Abstract
The development of personalized anticancer vaccines based on neoantigens represents a new direction in cancer immunotherapy. The latest advancement in dendritic cell (DC) tumor vaccine construction involves loading DC with mRNA-encoding neoantigens, which allows for rapid production and is suitable for personalized preparation. Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are emerging as biological delivery systems in which negatively charged nucleic acids can be wound onto the cationic CPP backbone to form nanoscale complexes. This preparation method facilitates standardization. If DC can express and present neoantigen mRNA at high levels, it holds promising application potential. In this study, we developed a neoantigen-mRNA/DC vaccine using candidate neoantigens from mouse colon cancer (MC38) and examined its immune and antitumor effects. The results demonstrated that neoantigen-mRNA/DC vaccines induced strong T cell immune responses and exhibited significant antitumor effects, effectively preventing tumor growth. Our study provides an experimental basis for further optimizing the preparation of DC vaccines and reducing their costs.
