Abstract:
Objective:In order to study the antitumor immune response induced by antigen pulsed,IL 18 gene modified dendritic cells in vivo.Methods:①C57BL/6 mice were immunized twice subcutaneously by tumor antigen peptide pulsed,IL 18 gene modified dendritic cells(DC IL 18/mut1)(1?10 5 cells/mouse),then the NK activity and CTL activity were determined.②In block test,C57BL/6 mice were first immunized once 2?10 5 cells/mouse DC IL 18/mut1 subcutaneously,and then challenged by 5?10 5 3LL Lewis lung cancer cells/mouse with blocking different immune components by monoclonal antibody,the tumor growth were observed.Results:Specific CTL activity and NK activity could be induced most significantly in mice immunized with DC IL 18/mut1.The block test showed that CD4 +T,costimulating pathway,the production of IFN ? involved in the induction phase of immunization with DC IL 18/mut1,and CD8 +T?IFN ??NK cells involved in the effect phase but CD4 +T cells unnecessary.Conclusion:Immunization with DC msIL 18/mut1 could induce potent antitumor immune activity,whose mechanisms involved effective antigen presentation,increased CTL activity and NK activity,CD4 +?CD8 +T?NK cells incorporation,and the production of IFN ?.
