Abstract:
BACKGROUND:As the existence of tumor stem cel s, it is difficult to completely eliminate tumors in clinic.
OBJECTIVE:To explore the tumor-kil ing effect of gastric cancer stem cel s as antigen to stimulate dendritic cel s combined with cytokine-induced kil er cel s.
METHODS:Side population cel s from human gastric cancer cel lines were isolated, and tumor antigen was prepared by freeze thawing method. After coculture with dendritic cel s, dendritic cel s combined with cytokine-induced kil er cel s, gastric cancer cel antigen, and gastric cancer stem cel antigen, kil ing rates of gastric cancer cel s were detected using MTT assay. Expression rate of CD83, a mature dendritic cel surface marker, was also detected.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The CD83 expression level and kil ing rate of gastric cancer cel s were both significantly lower in the gastric cancer stem cel antigen group than the other groups (both P<0.05). These results indicate that gastric cancer stem cel s as antigen to stimulate dendritic cel s combined with cytokine-induced kil er cel s can promote the proliferation of gastric cancer cel s and elevate the ability to kil ing gastric cancer cel s.
