Study of proliferation profile in cord blood CIK cells / 肿瘤研究与临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To investigate the proliferation and the change of antigen on the cord blood CIK cells. Methods Cord blood CIK cells were generated by culture cord blood mononuclear cells in the presence of ?-IFN on day 0 and rhIL-2, antiCD3 MCAb on day 1. CIK cultures were analysed on different time point by FACS(Fluorescence activated cell sorter). The killing efficacy in tumor cell lines and primary leukemia cells were detected by MTT assay. Results After 2~3 weeks of culturing cord blood CIK cells expanded about 64.14?16 folds and CD+3 CD+56 cells which were the major cytolytic effector in CIK cells proliferated about 900 folds. Cord blood CIK cells have great cytotoxity against tumor cell lines as well as primary leukemia cells. Conclusions Cord blood MNCs can be cultured to CIK cells and the times of expansion are very high. Cord Blood CIK cells are highly efficient cytolytic effector cells.
