01

Overview

Pancreatic tumor associated antigens (TAAs) are molecules overexpressed or aberrantly expressed on pancreatic cancer cells compared to normal tissues. They serve as biomarkers for diagnosis, prognosis, and targets for immunotherapy. Key TAAs include ADAM9, EFNB2, MET, TMOD3, TPX2, WNT7A, Claudin18.2, MUC1, CEA, Survivin, Telomerase, and carbohydrate-related antigens like CA19-9 and CA125. They are targets for vaccines and antibody therapies.

Mechanism of action

Varies depending on the specific TAA and therapeutic approach. Examples include: Induction of cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) responses, antibody-mediated cell cytotoxicity (ADCC), inhibition of receptor signaling, disruption of cell-cell interactions.
