Abstract:
Objective:To investigate therapeutic effect of reinfusion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte(TIL)with clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats/CRISPR-associated 9(CRISPR/CAS9)knockout programmed death-1(PD-1)on colon cancer in mice.Methods:Subcutaneous injection of CT26 was used to establish mouse colon cancer model.TIL was extracted from tumor tissue of three model mice,and peripheral blood lymphocytes were extracted.PD-1 gene was knocked out of TIL.Reinfusion experiments were divided into control group(Control),lymphocyte group(Lym),tumor-bearing mouse TIL group(TIL),lentivirus empty empty group(pVSV-G-PX458-NC)and PX458-PD-1-sgRNA1 group(PD-1-sgRNA1),with 10 mice in each group.Tumor tissue quality and tumor inhibition rate were detected in each group.TUNEL was used to detect cell apoptosis in tumor tissues of mice.ELISA was used to detect contents of TNF-α and IFN-γ in tumor tissues of mice.Immunohistochemistry was used to detect expressions of CD4+T and CD8+T cells in tumor tissue.Immunofluorescence was used to detect expressions of proliferating cell nuclear antigen-67(Ki-67)and vascular endothelial growth factor(VEGF).Western blot was used to detect expressions of PD-1 and its ligand PD-L1 in tumor tissues.Results:PD-1-sgRNA1 could significantly inhibit growth of mouse tumor cells in vivo,inhibit expressions of Ki-67 and VEGF in tumor tissues,as well as expressions of PD-1 and PD-L1,elevate apoptosis rate,contents of TNF-α and IFN-γ in tumor tissues,and expressions of CD4+T and CD8+T cells(all P<0.05).Conclusion:Reinfusion of TIL with CRISPR/CAS9 knockout PD-1 can significantly inhibit expressions of Ki-67 and VEGF in colon cancer mice,enhance infiltration of CD4+T and CD8+T cells,induce tumor cell apoptosis and inhibit tumor growth.
