title: [Experimental study of the anti-tumor activity of CD3AK against human gastric cancer cell line in vitro and in vivo].
abstract: Human CD3AK and LAK cells were prepared from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) by culturing them in recombinant IL-2 (rIL-2, 30 mu/ml) and anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody, and in rIL-2 alone (300/ml), respectively. By MTT assay, it was found that the PBMC, when cultured in the presence of anti-CD3/rIL-2, proliferated more actively and persistently than PBMC cultured in the presence of rIL-2 alone. In vitro cytotoxicity assay showed that CD3AK cells had stronger killing activity against a poorly differentiated human gastric adenocarcinoma cell line MNK 45 than LAK cells did. Winn's assay at an E/T ratio of 20 carried out in nude mice also indicated that CD3AK cells were more effective than LAK cells in tumor growth inhibition. When the nude mice were inoculated with MNK 45 admixed with CD3AK, none of them developed tumor whereas those inoculated with either MNK 45 or MNK 45 admixed with LAK cells all developed tumor. The results indicate that CD3AK would be a better choice than LAK for the adoptive immunotherapy of human stomach cancer.
