Abstract
Cytolytic T-lymphocyte (CTL) clones against an autologous melanoma (SK-MEL-29) were generated by mixed lymphocyte tumor culture and subsequent cloning of responder lymphocytes at limiting dilutions. These CTL clones lysed autologous melanoma but not autologous Epstein-Barr virus-transformed B cells and none of the allogeneic tumor targets included in the specificity analysis. The lysis of autologous melanoma targets could be inhibited by monoclonal antibodies against monomorphic HLA class I determinants. For proliferation of CTLs, the stimulation with the relevant target antigen on autologous tumor cells was essential. Immunoselection experiments carried out with two CTL clones revealed the existence of melanoma subclones that were resistant to lysis by the CTL clones used for immunoselection but were still lysed by other autologous CTL clones. This analysis allowed us to identify three stable simultaneously expressed antigens on the melanoma cells defined by autologous CTLs.
