ABSTRACT
<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>To study the cell immunity induced by lung cancer B7 vaccine, FLB2C cells.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Compared withparental lung cancer cell LA795 line, proliferation of mouse T lymphocytes stimulated by FLB2C was observed through mixed lymphocyte culture. CTLL cell MTT test was used to detect whether FLB2C stimulated T lymphocyte to secrete IL-2. After immunized with the FLB2C and LA795 cells, the CTL activity of mouse was observed in vivo.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The spleen lymphocyte proliferation stimulated by FLB2C cells was remarkably stronger than that by LA795 . FLB2C might stimulated the T lymphocyte to secrete IL-2 in vitro, but LA795 didn't. FLB2C cell could induce CTL activity in vivo and the induced CTL killed FLB2C cells and LA795 in vitro, with the killing rate of 34% and 25.3% respectively; while LA795 induced CTL killing rate being 10.5% and 12.25% respectively (P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>FLB2C can stimulate T cell immunity in vivo or in vitro. The effect of FLB2C is significantly stronger than that of LA795 . The results suggest that FLB2C may be used to treat lung cancer through improving immunity. This provides immunological basis for applying FLB2C as a vaccine to clinical use.</p>
