- W2071250283 abstract "The precise mechanism of action of bacillus Calmette-Guerin (BCG) in bladder cancer treatment remains poorly understood. Whether bladder tumor cells are destroyed by nonspecific mechanisms or targeted by specifically activated lymphocytes recognizing cognate antigens is unclear. To investigate a possible cross-reactivity between BCG and bladder cell tumors, we tested before BCG treatment the lymphoproliferation of peripheral blood lymphocytes against several mycobacterial antigens, including the secreted fibronectin binding antigen 85 complex from BCG (AG 85) in patients with superficial bladder tumors compared to control matched patients.Using a whole blood assay, T cell response against purified protein derivative, BCG extract, whole BCG, purified AG 85, and the nonspecific mitogens pokeweed and phytohemagglutinin was investigated in 79 patients with superficial bladder tumors before BCG and in 39 control subjects without malignancy matched for age and sex. Neither group had a history of tuberculosis. Lymphoproliferation was measured with a tritiated thymidine uptake assay on day 7 of culture.Of the 79 patients with superficial transitional cell carcinoma, a significant lymphoproliferative response before BCG against PPD, BCG extract, whole BCG and AG 85 was observed in 65 (82.2%), 67 (84.81%), 30 (37.97%) and 49 (62.02%) patients, respectively. Of the 39 controls only 26 (64.1%), 23 (58.9%), 3 (7.7%) and 3 (7.7%) patients, respectively, had a significant lymphoproliferation against PPD, BCG extract, BCG and AG 85 (p >0.05, p = 0.004, p = 0.00001 and p = 0.00001, respectively). In terms of lymphoproliferative levels, patients with superficial transitional cell carcinoma also showed a significantly higher response against PPD (p = 0.000012), BCG extract (p = 0.000001), AG 85 (p = 0.000001), whole BCG (p = 0.00001) and pokeweed (p = 0.01) than controls but not against phytohemagglutinin.Patients with superficial transitional cell carcinoma demonstrate an increased lymphoproliferation against mycobacterial antigens before BCG compared to control subjects. Although a nonspecific activation of the immune system cannot be excluded at this stage, our data may suggest the possible existence of bladder cancer antigens cross-reactive with mycobacterial antigens responsible for boosting precursor cells witnessing previous contacts with mycobacteria. The implication of these findings in the antitumoral mechanism of action of BCG are under investigation." @default.
