To explore the effect of soluble PD-1 (sPD-1) on the anti-tumor immunity induced by HSP70-peptide.
BALB/c mice were immunized with HSP70-peptide, then the cytotoxic activity of splenocytes was detected by MTT colorimetry. Expression of PD-1 and its ligand on splenocytes was determined by semi-quantitative RT-PCR. For some mice, sPD-1 plasmid was injected alone or in combination with HSP70-peptide and then the tumor weight and cytotoxic activity of splenocytes were measured.
sPD-1 alone had anti-tumor effect. HSP70-peptide complex not only induced tumor-specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTLs), but also promoted expression of PD-1 and its ligand. The combination of sPD-1 with HSP70-peptide complex induced much more stronger anti-tumor effect as compared with sPD-1 or HSP70-peptide alone. sPD-1 transfection in mice could enhance the cytotoxic activity of splenocytes from immunized mice.
sPD-1 enhanced the anti-tumor efficacy of HSP70-peptide.
探讨可溶性程序性死亡蛋白1(sPD-1)对热休克蛋白70(HSP70)-肽诱导的抗肿瘤免疫的影响。
用HSP70-肽免疫BALB/c小鼠,然后通过MTT比色法检测脾细胞的细胞毒活性。采用半定量逆转录聚合酶链反应(RT-PCR)测定脾细胞上PD-1及其配体的表达。对部分小鼠单独注射sPD-1质粒或与HSP70-肽联合注射,然后测量肿瘤重量和脾细胞的细胞毒活性。
单独使用sPD-1具有抗肿瘤作用。HSP70-肽复合物不仅诱导肿瘤特异性细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(CTL),还促进PD-1及其配体的表达。与单独使用sPD-1或HSP70-肽相比,sPD-1与HSP70-肽复合物联合诱导出更强的抗肿瘤作用。小鼠体内sPD-1转染可增强免疫小鼠脾细胞的细胞毒活性。
sPD-1增强了HSP70-肽的抗肿瘤疗效。
