Abstract:
Objective To induce highly active hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) specific cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (H-S-CTL) lines by co-culture of lymphocytes and hepatocellular carcinoma cells. Methods H-S-CTL were established by co-culture of autologous HCC cells and lymphocytes, under stimulation of IL-1,IL-2,IL-4 and IL-6.The cytotoxic activity of H-S-CTL for target cells were detected by 51Cr release assay and indirect immunofluorescence assay. Results Compared with auto-LAK, H-S-CTL showed much higher antitumor activity of significantly increased CD3+, CD4+ and CD8+ cells. Conclusions H-S-CTL lines with massive proliferations and high antitumor activity can be successfully obtained by ex vivo co-culture under the stimulation of interlukins.
