title: Generation of MC-38 adenocarcinoma tumor-specific tumor infiltrating lymphocytes by murine anti-CD3 antibody and recombinant interleukin-2.
abstract: The growth, in vitro cytolytic activity and phenotype of murine MC-38 adenocarcinoma tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) stimulated with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody (mAb) and recombinant interleukin-2 (RIL-2) as compared to RIL-2 alone was investigated. When assayed for growth, anti-CD3 mAb + RIL-2 MC-38 TILs demonstrated an enhanced proliferative activity compared to RIL-2 alone (fold expansion, 16,228 and 365,713 compared to 112 and 5594, culture times: 55 and 118 days, experiments 1 and 2, respectively). TILs cultured with anti-CD3 mAb alone demonstrated little expansion (fold expansion 6 and 3, experiments 1 and 2, respectively). Early during culture, the anti-CD3 mAb + RIL-2 MC-38 expanded TILs demonstrated broad cytolytic activity (LU: day 17, against MCA-102: greater than 125, YAC-1: greater than 125, MC-38, greater than 125). This lytic picture reversed with time with increasing specificity demonstrated against MC-38 (LU: day 53, MCA-102: less than 1, YAC-1: less than 1, MC-38: 8). TILs expanded with RIL-2 alone demonstrated more lysis of the YAC-1 target and little lysis of the other targets.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
