The authors next asked whether the bacterial peptides are truly presented by melanoma cells, rather than by immune cells called antigen-presenting cells (APCs) that detect, take up and present pathogens to other cells of the immune system. [...]the bacterial peptides identified by Kalaora et al. could be attractive targets for immunotherapy. [...]tumour-displayed bacterial peptides could serve as tumour-specific antigens shared between people - a rare and useful combination for therapeutics, so far seen only in virally induced tumours, in which epitopes can be derived from viral cancer-causing proteins5.
