Abstract:
Objective To explore the anticancer mechanism of esophageal cancer vaccines and clinical effect.Methods Esophagus cancer cells (Eca109) were cultured and the soluble antigen were extracted from the cells.Esophagus cancer vaccine was constructed with the antigen and superantigen SEC.Lymphocytes were isolated from peripheral blood and then stimulated with the vaccine in vitro.Phenotypes of the cells were checked by FCM and killing activity was tested with cytotoxic assays.One hundred and six early esophageal cancer patients were selected after surgery,who were divided into the observation group of 53 cases with esophageal cancer vaccine therapy and 53 cases in the control group with conventional treatment.Then clinical effect was observated and 3 year follow-up survival rate was observed of the of two groups of patients.Results Proliferation of vaccine stimulated lymphocyte group was the strongest,and high peaked at 72 h (A =0.22),and raise CD8+ T cell populations of CTLs.The killing activity of lymphocyte group stimulated by the vaccine against target cells was significantly higher than that of lymphocyte group ((97.36±2.11) %) vs.(79.27±5.57) %,F =38.62,P<0.01).Three years follow up shows that the survival rates of experiment group were 48.27% (male) and 45.83% (female) respectively,and control group were 21.43% (male) and 24.00% (female),and the difference was significant (x2 =5.06,6.28,P < 0.05).Conclusion The tumor vaccine constructed with esophagus cancer antigen and superantigen SEC can induce PBMC to activate and proliferate into CD8+ CTL with specific cytotoxicity against the cells which the antigen comes from.The vaccine may raise the survival rate of the patients with Esophagus cancer.
