Epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM) fused to IgG, IgA and IgM Fc domains was expressed to create IgG, IgA and IgM-like structures as anti-cancer vaccines in Nicotiana tabacum. High-mannose glycan structures were generated by adding a C-terminal endoplasmic reticulum (ER) retention motif (KDEL) to the Fc domain (FcK) to produce EpCAM-Fc and EpCAM-FcK proteins in transgenic plants via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation. Cross-fertilization of EpCAM-Fc (FcK) transgenic plants with Joining chain (J-chain, J and JK) transgenic plants led to stable expression of large quaternary EpCAM-IgA Fc (EpCAM-A) and IgM-like (EpCAM-M) proteins. Immunoblotting, SDS-PAGE and ELISA analyses demonstrated that proteins with KDEL had higher expression levels and binding activity to anti-EpCAM IgGs. IgM showed the strongest binding among the fusion proteins, followed by IgA and IgG. Sera from BALB/c mice immunized with these vaccines produced anti-EpCAM IgGs. Flow cytometry indicated that the EpCAM-Fc fusion proteins significantly activated CD8
