Human malignant neoplasms carry rejection antigens that are recognized by the patients' autologous, tumor directed and specific, cytolytic, CD8+ T lymphocyte clones (CTL). An important group of antigens is coded by the MAGE family of genes. It was identified that melanoma associated with antigens (MAAs). Because MAGE-1 is expressed on a significant proportion of human neoplasms of various hisological tyoes (melanoma, brain tumors of glial origin, neuroblastoma, non-small cell lung cancer, breast, gastric, colorectal, ovarian, renal cell carcinomas) and not on normal tissues, the encoded antigen may serve as a marker of early detection and target for cancer immunotherapy.
