Identification of HLA-A*11:01-restricted T-cell epitopes of HPV16 E6 and E7. (A) Naïve CD8+ T cells were isolated from HLA-A*11:01-positive, healthy donors and stimulated with indicated E6 or E7 peptides. After approximately 14 days in culture, stimulated T cells were stained with the corresponding tetramer. The representative tetramer staining flow plots of peptide stimulated CD8+ T cells from healthy donors are shown. The underlined number is the percentage of gated tetramer+CD8+ cells. (B) Recognition of SK-MEL-28-E6 (E6+) or SK-MEL-28-E7 (E7+) tumor cells by TTL, IVC, and LLI-specific polyclonal T cells was determined by IFN-γ ELISpot. Peptide-pulsed T2-A11 served as positive controls. IFN-γ, interferon gamma; ELISpot, enzyme-linked immunospot; SFU, spot-forming unit.
