Whole genome transcriptional analysis clearly indicate that regression of melanoma metastases is due to an acute immune rejection mediated by the upregulation of genes involved in antigen presentation and interferon mediated response (STAT\u20101\/IRF\u20101) in all the regressing metastases from both patients. In contrast, progressing metastases showed low transcription levels of genes involved in these pathways. Histological analysis showed T cells and HLA\u2010DR positive infiltrating cells in the regressing but not in the progressing metastases. Quantitative expression analysis of HLA\u2010A,B and C genes on microdisected tumoral regions indicate higher HLA expression in regressing than in progressing metastases. The molecular signature obtained in melanoma rejection appeared to be similar to that observed in other forms of immune\u2010mediated tissue\u2010specific rejection such as allograft, pathogen clearance, graft versus host or autoimmune disease, supporting the immunological constant of rejection. We favor the idea that the major factor determining the success or failure of immunotherapy is the nature of HLA Class I alterations in tumor cells and not the type of immunotherapy used. If the molecular alteration is reversible by the immunotherapy, the HLA expression will be upregulated and the lesion will be recognized and rejected. In contrast, if the defect is structural the MHC Class I expression will remain unchanged and the lesion will progress.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1002\/ijc.26471","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2011,9,30]],"date-time":"2011-09-30T17:58:16Z","timestamp":1317405496000},"page":"387-395","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":77,"title":["Regression
