title: [Acquirement of autologous murine cytotoxic T lymphocytes via cryopreservation of lymphocytes].
abstract: Objective To evaluate the effects of cryopreservation on the proliferation and killing activity of lymphocytes, and explore a novel protocol of preparing autologous mouse cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). Methods Mononuclear cells derived from spleen (5.0×106/mL) were cryopreserved in CELLBANKER2 for 6 days and recovered in water bath at 39DegreesCelsius. The fresh lymphocytes and post-cryopreservation lymphocytes were induced by CD3 mAb (100 ng/mL) and recombinant mouse interleukin 2 (rmIL-2, 100 ng/mL) to obtain cytokine-induced killer cells (CIKs). Dendritic cells (DCs) were co-cultured with fresh allogenic lymphocytes and post-cryopreservation autologous lymphocytes to obtain CTLs. The viable cells were counted by trypan blue staining; the percentages of CD3+T cells and regulatory T cells (Tregs) were determined by flow cytometry; the levels of supernatant IFN-γ were detected through ELISA and the cytotoxicity was evaluated by lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay. Results The rate of viable lymphocytes declined to 78% after cryopreservation, and there were no significant differences in the percentages of CD3+T cells and Tregs between pre-cryopreservation and post-cryopreservation. There were no significant differences in the proliferation of Tregs, the level of IFN-γ and the cytotoxicity between the fresh CIKs and cryopreservation CIKs, and the similar results were get between the autologous CTLs and allogenic CTLs. Conclusion The autologous CTLs acquired via cryopreservation of lymphocytes is equivalent to the allogenic CTLs with the similar proliferation and killing activity in vitro.
