Abstract

Objective To investigate effect to kill primary breast cancer cells by dendritic cell (DC)with self-freeze thawing antigens of primary breast cancer cells co-cultured with cytokine induced killer cell (CIK). Methods Self-neoplasm antigen by primary cells of breast cancer in log phase growth was prepared and DC and CIK cells was cultured from peripheral blood. The CIK of co-cultured DC loaded self-neoplasm antigen was compared to PBMC, CIK cells with self-neoplasm antigen and the single CIK cells. Results Killing efficiency of PBMC, CIK, Ag-CIK and Ag-DC-CIK were (34.35±3.28) %, (45.91±2.78) %, (50.88±3.22) %, (62.10±5.94) %. There were significant difference between Ag-DC-CIK group and CIK-Ag and CIK group to primary cells of breast cancer (P <0.01). Conclusion The CIK induced from cocultured DC loaded with self-neoplasm antigen show a special killing activity to self-primary tumor cells.
