CD300LG improves the cytotoxic activity of CIK

چکیده
To investigate the effect of CD300LG-γ induction on the cytotoxic activity of CIK. Eukaryotic expression plasmid hCD300LG-γ/pEGFP-C3, which can express human CD300LG-γ, was constructed and transfected into CHO cells by lipofectamine. The expression of CD300LG-γ was confirmed by immunofluorescence, RT-PCR, and Western Blot. To produce CIK cells, human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) were isolated and induced, respectively, by cell lysates extracted from hCD300LG-γ/CHO cells, pEGFP-C3/CHO cells, and CHO cells, concurrently with the standard CIK inductive agent. The cytotoxic activity of these CIK cells against hCD300LG-γ/CHO cells, pEGFP-C3/CHO cells, CHO cells, and K562 cells was tested. The results showed that eukaryotic expression of plasmid hCD300LG-γ/pEGFP-C3 was constructed and transfected into CHO cells successfully. After being induced by cell lysates, the cytotoxicity of hCD300LG-γ/CHO-CIK was improved compared with the other CIK cells. In particular, the activity of killing pEGFP-C3/CHO and CHO cells was improved significantly. Meanwhile, the activity of hCD300LG-γ/CHO-CIK killing K562 was improved significantly compared with the other CIK cells. The results indicated that hCD300LG-γ induction can significantly improve the killing activity of CIK cells.

Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are in vitro-expanded cells harboring potent toxicity against tumor cells. Recently, it was identified that the cytotoxicity and proliferation of CIK cells are restricted by a prolonged CIK cell culture period. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte-associated antigen 4 (CTLA-4) serves a negative role in T cell activation and proliferation. This study aims to determine wheth...

Regulatory T cells (Tregs) are potent immunosuppressive cells and essential for inducing immune tolerance. Recent studies have reported that Tregs and Tregs related cytokines can inhibit the antitumor activity of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells, but dendritic cells co-cultured CIK (DC-CIK) cells can be used for induction of a specific immune response by blocking of Tregs and TGF-β, IL-10.
