Activation of human tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes by monoclonal antibodies directed to the CD3 complex.

چکیده
We have used high concentrations of recombinant-methionyl human interleukin 2 (rIL-2) for the initial growth and expansion of human tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL). Early in the life of the TIL bulk culture, cytotoxicity was non-major histocompatibility complex restricted. Under these culture conditions antitumor cytotoxicity was observed to decline with increasing age of the bulk culture. In addition, TIL became refractory to rIL-2-induced expansion. We have used solid-phase anti-CD3 antibodies for TIL activation followed by culture in reduced concentrations of rIL-2 to reactivate TIL previously grown in high concentrations of rIL-2. TIL refractory to rIL-2 in terms of growth and antitumor cytotoxicity proved sensitive to anti-CD3 activation. The use of solid-phase anti-CD3 was also more effective than high concentrations of rIL-2 in the expansion of TIL when used at the start of culture. Finally, TIL could be induced to secrete IL-2 following solid-phase activation with anti-CD3. These data suggest that human TIL are susceptible to activation by signals directed at the CD3 complex of the TIL cell surface.

Immunohistochemical evaluation of lymphocyte types infiltrate into the canine seminomas
BACKGROUNDS: Seminoma is frequently observed in human and canine testes especially in cryptorchids. Canine and human seminomas are typically associated with leukocytic infiltration. OBJECTIVES: We aimed to identify the type of lymphocytes that infiltrate to seminomas. METHODS: Tumor infiltrating lymphocytes were evaluated by immunohistological techniques in 5 dogs with diffuse seminoma. Routine...

Seventeen consecutive s.c. murine tumors, derived from a sarcoma and a colon adenocarcinoma, were cultured in the presence of recombinant interleukin 2 (rIL-2) for growth of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL). Identical cultures were activated by solid-phase monoclonal antibody directed against the murine CD3 epsilon-chain, in conjunction with rIL-2. Forty-eight h later, cells were replaced i...

Bispecific monoclonal antibodies (Bi-mAbs) specific for a tumor-associated antigen and the CD3 or CD28 antigen on T lymphocytes represent one of the most successful experimental strategies for the immunotherapy of cancer. We report that the in vivo administration of both alpha-CD3/CD30 and alpha-CD28/CD30 Bi-mAbs results in the specific activation of xenotransplanted, resting human T cells infi...

SUMMARY Monoclonal Antibodies are identical antibodies and Can be generated in ultimated amounts by countinuos cultures of single antibody- secreting cells. These cell lines are produced by cell fusion of normal lymphocytes to cells of a myeloma tumor cell line, which confers on the antibody producing hybrid cell, immortality and the ability grow as atumor in animals. monoclonal antibodies c...
