The BCR-ABL oncogene is central in the pathogenesis of
chronic myeloid leukemia (CML). Here, tandem nanospray mass
spectrometry was used to demonstrate cell surface HLA-associated
expression of the BCR-ABL peptide KQSSKALQR on class I-negative CML
cells transfected with HLA-A*0301, and on primary CML cells from
HLA-A3-positive patients. These patients mounted a cytotoxic
T-lymphocyte response to KQSSKALQR that also killed autologous CML
cells, and tetramer staining demonstrated the presence of circulating
KQSSKALQR-specific T cells. The findings are the first demonstration
that CML cells express HLA-associated leukemia-specific immunogenic
peptides and provide a sound basis for immunization studies against
BCR-ABL.
