The study of killing effect by T-lymphocytes after activiated by dendritic cells loaded with RCC 786-0 cell line freeze thawing antigen in vitro / 重庆医科大学学报

ABSTRACT

Objective: To study the immune responses of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes against Renal carcinoma cell 786-0(RCC) after activiated by dendritic cells(DCs) loaded with RCC freeze thawing antigen.Methods:DCs were obtained by cultured plastic-adherent monocytes isolated from health human peripheral blood with granulocyte-monocyte colony-stimulating factor(GM-CSF) and interleukin-4(IL-4) and Tumor necrosis factor(TNF) for 9 days.Host lymphocytes were stimulated with freeze thawing antigen of RCC 786-0 under the culture medium containing interleukin-2(IL-2) for 5 day.Killing activity and cytokine release were measured by MTT assay and ELISA.Results:The immune response of CTL activiated by DCs loaded with tumor soluble antigen was demonstrated by the following facts(1)DCs loaded with tumor antigen could induce the growth of CTL.(2)The cyotoxicity of obtained specific CTL against RCC-7860 was highly enhanced with a significant difference from that of non-specific CTL.(3)The interleukin-12 release/secretion was increased by tumor antigen,which suggest an improved anti-tumor effect.(4)Apoptosis was observed in the RCCs after treated with CTL obtained.Conclution These findings indicate that specific CTL induced by DCs sensibilized by RCC freeze thawing antigen exerts a remarkable killing activity on RCC 786-0.It is suggestd that DCs antitumor vaccines poses a clinically useful prospect with RCC.
