1.MECHANISM OF ACTION

The peptide functions as a T-cell epitope. When processed and presented on MHC class I or II molecules by antigen-presenting cells, it binds to specific T-cell receptors (TCRs) on CD8+ cytotoxic T-cells or CD4+ helper T-cells, triggering T-cell activation, proliferation, and effector functions such as cytokine release and cytotoxic activity, thereby initiating an antigen-specific immune response against cells expressing the tyrosinase antigen.


2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS

This peptide is indicated for research applications in immunology and oncology, including T-cell activation and proliferation assays, epitope mapping, melanoma vaccine research, and studies of autoimmune vitiligo pathogenesis. It is also used in the development and validation of immunotherapies, such as adoptive T-cell transfer and cancer vaccines targeting the tyrosinase antigen.


3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT

As a research-grade reagent, [Asp371] Tyrosinase(369-377) is not a clinically approved therapeutic. However, peptides derived from this epitope are under investigation in clinical trials for melanoma immunotherapy. Early-phase trials have shown that tyrosinase-targeted vaccines can induce specific T-cell responses and, in some cases, objective clinical responses, supporting the potential of this epitope in cancer immunotherapy, though broader efficacy and approval are pending further clinical validation.
