Résumé

Blocking of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) plays a pivotal role in inhibition of metastasis and is a target for development of anti-angiogenic agents. In this study, a peptide-based vaccine was designed and its potential for induction of humoral immune responses, generation of neutralizing antibodies, inhibition of tumor growth and metastasis was determined. With online bioinformatics tools, a fragment of the VEGF-A was selected for a peptide-based vaccine. To enhance its antigenicity, the peptide was conjugated with The bioinformatics analysis of the selected region confirmed dis-similarity of the peptide with any other human protein and its acceptable antigenicity to stimulate a tumor-specific humoral response. Anti-VEGF antibody titers were significantly greater in vaccinated mice than in controls. IgG antibody from mice immunized with recombinant VEGF-A inhibited HUVEC proliferation ( Production of high-titer antibody against the peptide vaccine indicated that the peptide has the potency to be used as a peptide-based vaccine for humoral inhibition of tumor growth and metastasis. The efficacy of the peptide should be further tested in primate models.
