BACKGROUND/AIM: Malignant ascites contain many tumour-infiltrating lymphocytes. γδ T cells with antitumour activity have attracted attention as effector cells in cancer immunotherapy. Vδ T cells were cultured from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and ascites-infiltrating lymphocytes (AILs) to compare the differences in response to 2-methyl-3-butenyl-1-pyrophosphate (2M3B1-PP) and zoledronate (Zol) as antigens in vitro.
To expand Vδ T cells from PBMCs and AILs from 29 patients with cancer, these cells were cultured and subjected to analysis.
The proliferation rate of Vδ T cells was higher in both PBMCs and AILs when cultured with Zol than with 2M3B1-PP. Although Vδ T cells show a higher rate of expansion in AILs compared to PBMCs, the number of mixed tumour cells in ascites was decreased when cultured with Zol.
Vδ T cells in AILs are cytotoxic to tumour cells in ascites and may be considered in adoptive immunotherapy.
背景/目的:恶性腹水中含有许多肿瘤浸润淋巴细胞。具有抗肿瘤活性的γδ T细胞作为癌症免疫治疗中的效应细胞受到关注。从外周血单核细胞(PBMC)和腹水浸润淋巴细胞(AIL)中培养Vδ T细胞,以比较体外对作为抗原的2-甲基-3-丁烯基-1-焦磷酸(2M3B1-PP)和唑来膦酸(Zol)的反应差异。
为了从29例癌症患者的PBMC和AIL中扩增Vδ T细胞,对这些细胞进行培养并进行分析。
与2M3B1-PP相比,用Zol培养时,PBMC和AIL中Vδ T细胞的增殖率更高。尽管与PBMC相比,AIL中Vδ T细胞的扩增率更高,但用Zol培养时,腹水中混合肿瘤细胞的数量减少。
AIL中的Vδ T细胞对腹水中的肿瘤细胞具有细胞毒性,可考虑用于过继性免疫治疗。
