We have developed a solid matrix immunoassay to determine the binding of interleukin-2 (IL-2) to specific gangliosides. The assay establishes that recombinant human IL-2 binds to ganglioside GD(1b) but not to any other gangliosides (GM(1), GM(2), GM(3), GD(1a), GD(2), GD(3), and GT(1b)). The binding varies with the ratio of GD1b and IL-2. This assay enables distinguishing the nature of the sugar moiety of the ganglioside recognized by IL-2 and establishes the dosimetry of the ganglioside-IL-2 interaction. Since rIL-2 is administered systematically into stage IV melanoma patients, we have examined 45 tumor biopsies for GD(1b) content. The incidence of GD(1b) in tumor biopsies is 51%. We postulate that GD(1b) associated on the tumor or in the circulation of cancer patients may bind to rIL-2 and prevent the availability of rIL-2 to augment antitumor-immune response. 相似文献

We describe here a recombinant baculovirus expression system useful for high level production of murine recombinant interleukin-5 (rIL-5). In addition, we describe a single-step technique of purification of the rIL-5 from the baculovirus-infected Sf9 cell supernatants, using an anti-IL-5 affinity column. The baculovirus-derived rIL-5 has physical properties and functional activities in various lymphoid cell assays similar to those of natural T cell-derived IL-5 and reacts with anti-IL-5 antibodies. Finally, the rIL-5 is similar to natural T cell-derived IL-5 in manifesting heterogeneous glycosylation; however, glycosylation does not appear to be necessary for biologic function, at least in a lymphoid cell proliferation assay. 相似文献

Gibbon interleukin-3 (rIL-3) has recently been cloned and found to have a high degree of homology with the human IL-3 molecule. In this investigation, we evaluated the effects of gibbon rIL-3 on normal human peripheral blood megakaryocyte progenitor cell growth in vitro. Gibbon rIL-3 exhibited substantial megakaryocyte colony stimulatory activity (Meg-CSA), supporting peak colony numbers at a concentration of 1 U/ml. Megakaryocyte colony growth induced by rIL-3 reached 58% of the maximum achieved with the active, Meg-CSA-containing protein fraction of aplastic canine serum. Increasing gibbon rIL-3 concentrations also stimulated a 4-5-fold increase in megakaryocyte colony size and resulted in a decrease in geometric mean megakaryocyte ploidy. Ploidy values fell from 8.5N +/- 1.4 (+/- SEM) at an rIL-3 concentration of 0.1 U/ml to a minimum of 2.9N +/- 0.3 at 10 U/ml. In the presence of rIL-3 at 1.0 U/ml, megakaryocyte colony growth was linear with cell plating density and the regression line passed approximately through the origin. The effects of rIL-3 on megakaryocyte colony growth were independent of the presence of T-lymphocytes in the cultures. Cross-species evaluation of murine and gibbon IL-3 indicated that its bioactivity is species restricted. Murine IL-3 did not support colony growth from human megakaryocyte progenitors and gibbon rIL-3 showed no activity in stimulating acetylcholinesterase production by murine bone marrow cells. Gibbon rIL-3 is a potent stimulator of the early events of human megakaryocyte progenitor cell development promoting predominantly mitosis and early megakaryocytic differentiation. 相似文献

Regulation of interleukin-2 and interleukin-6 production from T-cells: involvement of interleukin-1 beta and transforming growth factor-beta 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The effect of recombinant (r) interleukin-1 beta (rIL-1 beta) and transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) on the production of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and interleukin-6 (IL-6) from an antigen-specific (LBRM-33-1A5) and an antigen-nonspecific (EL-4-NOB-1) T-cell line was investigated. rIL-1 beta induced the production of IL-2 and IL-6 from EL-4-NOB-1 cells in a dose-related manner. The LBRM-33-1A5 cells required phytohemagglutinin (PHA) in addition to rIL-1 beta in order to produce IL-2 and IL-6. IL-2 production was found to precede IL-6 production in both cell lines. No IL-2 or IL-6 production was observed by adding r murine tumor necrosis factor-alpha or r murine interferon gamma to the cells. The presence of 1 ng/ml TGF-beta reduced IL-2 and IL-6 production from both T-cell lines by more than 80%. The inhibition of IL-2 and IL-6 production was still evident by a concentration as low as 10 pg/ml of TGF-beta. rIL-1 beta and PHA also stimulated murine thymocytes to produce IL-6 which was inhibited up to 85% in the presence of 1 ng/ml TGF-beta. Taken together these results suggest that TGF-beta may suppress immune responses by inhibiting the endogenous production of IL-2 and IL-6. 相似文献

Murine interleukin-5 (IL-5) binds to its receptor with high and low affinity. It has been shown that the high affinity IL-5 receptor (IL-5-R) is composed of at least two membrane protein subunits and is responsible for IL-5-mediated signal transduction. One subunit of the high affinity IL-5-R is a 60 kDa membrane protein (p60 IL-5-R) whose cDNA was isolated using the anti-IL-5-R monoclonal antibody (mAb), H7. This subunit alone binds IL-5 with low affinity. The second subunit does not bind IL-5 by itself, and is expressed not only on IL-5-dependent cell lines but also on an IL-3-dependent cell line, FDC-P1. Expression of the p60 IL-5-R cDNA in FDC-P1 cells, which do not bind IL-5, reconstituted the high affinity IL-5-R. We have characterized the second subunit of the IL-5-R by using another anti-IL-5-R mAb, R52.120, and the anti-IL-3-R mAb, anti-Aic-2. The anti-Aic-2 mAb down-regulated binding of IL-5 to an IL-5-dependent cell line, Y16. Both R52.120 and anti-Aic-2 mAbs recognized membrane proteins of 130-140 kDa expressed on FDC-P1 and Y16 cells. The R52.120 mAb recognized both murine IL-3-R (AIC2A) and its homologue (AIC2B) expressed on L cells transfected with suitable cDNAs. The high affinity IL-5-R was reconstituted on an L cell transfectant co-expressing AIC2B and p60 IL-5-R, whereas only the low affinity IL-5-R was detected on a transfectant co-expressing AIC2A and p60 IL-5-R.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Cytokines such as interleukin-6 (IL-6) and IL-17 which act as key regulators of the immune response have been identified to have a potential role in the bone remodeling mechanism. Receptor activator of NF-κB ligand (RANKL) has been shown to regulate osteoclast differentiation and function while the osteoprotegerin (OPG) blocks the binding of RANKL and inhibits the differentiation of osteoclasts, thus favoring osteogenesis. Alkaline phosphatase (ALP) on the other hand works as early mineralization indicator in bone regulation. The current study aims to determine the potential role of IL-6 and IL-17A in regulating the OPG/RANKL system of the murine osteoblast cell line (MC3T3-E1). Gene expression analysis showed significant up-regulation of OPG and ALP by all the treated groups (rIL-6, rIL-17A and rIL-6 + rIL-17A). In contrast, treatment of cells with rIL-6 and/or rIL-17A showed down-regulation of RANKL expression. Interestingly, the osteoblast cells treated with combinations of rIL-6 + rIL17A showed marked increased in OPG/RANKL ratio. Similar pattern of protein expression was observed in the osteoblasts treated with rIL-6 and/or rIL-17A as detected by western blotting and ELISA. These findings suggest a new mechanism of regulation by these cytokines on the expression of OPG and RANKL, which could promote osteogenesis and diminish osteoclastogenesis. 相似文献

Induction of interleukin-3 by interleukin-1 in the absence of other exogenous stimuli 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

We have previously reported that lipopolysaccharide (LPS) could induce the production of interleukin-3 (IL-3) by mouse spleen cells. In the present study, we show that recombinant human interleukin-1, in the absence of other stimuli, is able to induce the production of IL-3. IL-3 was detected in the supernatants of adult, although neither in young nor in nude mouse splenocytes and was assessed by its capacity to support the growth of the IL-3-dependent FDC-P2 cell line. The presence of IL-3 was antigenically confirmed with a monoclonal anti-IL-3 antibody. Both recombinant IL-1 alpha and IL-1 beta had similar potential for inducing IL-3 production. IL-3 activity was detected in the supernatants of cells cultured in the presence of 100 pg/ml IL-1; maximal IL-3 levels were obtained with 10-30 ng/ml IL-1. Kinetic studies of IL-1-induced IL-3 production indicated that 4-6 days of culture were required for optimal production, whereas 1-2 days were sufficient in cultures stimulated with concanavalin A. Recombinant IL-6 failed to induce significant amounts of IL-3, and TNF alpha induced only weak IL-3 production. GM-CSF but not M-CSF could lead to the appearance of IL-3 in spleen cell culture supernatants. Removal of macrophages decreased the production of IL-3 induced by LPS and GMF-CSF though did not affect the IL-3 production induced by IL-1. This observation suggests that IL-1 production might be an intermediate event in IL-3 production induced by LPS and GM-CSF through the activation of macrophages. IL-3 was detected in culture supernatants of B-cell-depleted splenocytes indicating that T-cells were the source of IL-3. Surprisingly T-cell-depleted populations could also produce IL-3 upon IL-1 stimulation. Preliminary experiments with an autoreactive CD4- CD8- V beta 8+ clone suggested that these cells might also be involved in the described IL-3 production. 相似文献

Cellular immune responses to autologous chronic myelogenous leukaemia cells in vitro 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Graham Pawelec Arnika Rehbein Elke Schlotz Paul da Silva 《Cancer immunology, immunotherapy : CII》1996,42(3):193-199
Using a modification of the autologous mixed lymphocyte/tumour cell culture (MLTC), it is demonstrated here that lymphocytes
from chronic-phase myelogenous leukaemia (CML) patients (n = 58), but not from their HLA-identical siblings, proliferated upon coculture with autologous tumour cells. However, in most
cases, the level of proliferation measured was low (stimulation index <3, n = 37). This was most likely related to the amount of interleukin-10 (IL-10) released into the culture medium by the CML cells,
because addition of neutralizing anti-IL-10 serum to MLTC markedly enhanced proliferative responses. In addition, supplementation
of media with IL-1α further enhanced proliferative responses and a combination of anti-IL-10 serum and IL-1α was more effective
than either agent alone. Only HLA-DR-matched CML cells, but not HLA-DR-mismatched CML cells or matched or mismatched PBMC
restimulated proliferation of IL-2-dependent T cell lines derived from MLTC supplemented with IL-1α and anti-IL-10 serum.
The responding cells under these conditions were predominantly CD4+ and secreted IL-2, and interferon γ; some secreted IL-4, but none secreted IL-10. These data therefore suggest the existence
of an HLA-DR-restricted DTH/Th1-type of tumour-specific immunity in CML patients, which may be down-regulated in vitro by
excessive secretion of IL-10 together with depressed secretion of IL-1.

Human rIL-7 was studied for its effects on myeloid and erythroid progenitors from human bone marrow cells. IL-7 did not support the granulocytic/monocytic or erythroid lineage but exclusively stimulated eosinophil colony formation (CFU-Eo) (4 +/- 3 vs 48 +/- 17 CFU-Eo/10(5) nonadherent fraction-non-T cell (NAF-NT) cells). This supportive effect was not mediated by T cells or monocytes because similar results were obtained with or without T cell or adherent depleted cell fractions. In addition, it was shown that CD34+ sorted cells could be stimulated by IL-7 (0 vs 15 +/- 9 CFU-Eo/3 x 10(3) CD34+ cells) Furthermore studies with IL-3 or granulocyte-macrophage CSF (GM-CSF) demonstrated an additive effect on the IL-7 supported colony formation. Finally, experiments were performed with anti-IL-3, anti-GM-CSF, anti-IL-1, and anti-IL-5 to exclude the possibility that IL-7 indirectly stimulated the eosinophil progenitor cell. Anti-GM-CSF, anti-IL-1, or anti-IL-3 did not influence the supportive effects of IL-7. However, anti-IL-5 did abolish the effects of IL-7 on the eosinophil colony formation (69 +/- 15 vs 3 +/- 2 CFU-Eo/10(5) NAF-NT, n = 3). Similar results were obtained with CD34+ sorted cells. Moreover, IL-5 mRNA expression could be demonstrated in IL-7-stimulated NAF-NT cells. These data suggest that the supportive effects of IL-7 on eosinophil precursors are mediated by the endogenous release of IL-5. 相似文献

Glutathione (GSH), the most prevalent intracellular non-protein thiol, plays an important role in the interleukin-2 (IL-2)-induced proliferative activity of normal and tumour cells expressing IL-2 receptor (IL-2R). In the present study, we investigate the effect of IL-2 on proliferation of the human melanoma A375 cell line, and the possible selective cytomodulation effect of this cytokine by l-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylate (OTZ) on these melanoma cells and on human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). We found that recombinant IL-2 (rIL-2) significantly increased the proliferation rate of A375 melanoma cells, which was associated with an increase in GSH levels, the enhancement of IL-2Rα expression and the endogenous production of IL-2 in these tumour cells. In contrast, OTZ decreased GSH content and the proliferation rate of A375 cells, and abrogated the growth-promoting effects of rIL-2. Thus, compared to cells treated with rIL-2, pre-treatment with OTZ reduced IL-2Rα expression, and also decreased the consumption of rIL-2 and the endogenous secretion of IL-2 by these tumour cells. With regard to PBMCs, the combination of OTZ plus rIL-2 resulted in a more rapid and greater increase of IL-2Rα expression than rIL-2 alone, with the proliferation rate being similar in the first 24 h, but with a lower PBMC′ count found thereafter compared to rIL-2 treatment alone. These results suggest that OTZ plays a crucial role in obtaining a selective cytomodulation of rIL-2, enabling it to exert its growth-promoting effect on normal cells, but not on melanoma cells, thereby possibly improving biochemotherapy with rIL-2. 相似文献

The expression of gangliosides in hamster melanoma cells is closely related to cellular growth and degree of differentiation, with slow-growing, highly differentiated melanotic melanoma cells expressing GM3 and fast-growing, undifferentiated amelanotic Ab melanoma cells having a preponderance of GD3 and O-acetyl-GD3. We recently showed that down-regulation of O-acetyl-GD3 expression in hamster melanoma cells by introducing the influenza C virus O-acetylesterase cDNA into the cells resulted in induction of dendricity, with a concomitant increased expression of GD3. To examine the effect of the increased GD3 expression in the plasma membrane on the dendricity of the AbC-1 cells, we first established the cDNA coding for hamster GD3-synthase. We then targeted the sialyltransferase gene expression by the antisense knockdown experiment, and the results showed that inhibition of the expression of gangliosides GD3 and O-acetyl-GD3 induced dendricity in the hamster melanoma AbC-1 cell line. These GD3- and O-acetyl-GD3-depleted cells also demonstrated a decreased rate of cell growth, but their melanogenic potential was not affected. These results rule out the possibility that GD3 may serve as an active molecule for dendrite outgrowth in this cell line and suggest that the enhanced expression of O-acetyl-GD3 ganglioside may stimulate cellular growth and suppress certain differentiated phenotypes such as dendrite formation, but not melanogenesis, in our system. 相似文献

There have been a few studies on the ganglioside expression in human glioma tissues. However, the role of these gangliosides such as GD3 and GD2 has not been well understood. In this study we employed a genetically engineered mouse model of glioma to clarify the functions of GD3 in gliomas. Forced expression of platelet-derived growth factor B in cultured astrocytes derived from p53-deficient mice resulted in the expression of GD3 and GD2. GD3-positive astrocytes exhibited increased cell growth and invasion activities along with elevated phosphorylation of Akt and Yes kinase. By enzyme-mediated activation of radical sources reaction and mass spectrometry, we identified PDGF receptor α (PDGFRα) as a GD3-associated molecule. GD3-positive astrocytes showed a significant amount of PDGFRα in glycolipid-enriched microdomains/rafts compared with GD3-negative cells. Src kinase family Yes was co-precipitated with PDGFRα, and its pivotal role in the increased cell invasion of GD3-positive astrocytes was demonstrated by silencing with anti-Yes siRNA. Direct association between PDGFRα and GD3 was also shown, suggesting that GD3 forms ternary complex with PDGFRα and Yes. The fact that GD3, PDGFRα, and activated Yes were colocalized in lamellipodia and the edge of tumors in cultured cells and glioma tissues, respectively, suggests that GD3 induced by platelet-derived growth factor B enhances PDGF signals in glycolipid-enriched microdomain/rafts, leading to the promotion of malignant phenotypes such as cell proliferation and invasion in gliomas. 相似文献

Gangliosides are sialic acid-containing glycosphingolipids and exhibit various physiologic functions. Gangliosides GD1a and GM3 strongly induced interleukin-10 (IL-10) protein secretion and mRNA expression in T cells from normal human subjects while the other gangliosides were ineffective. IL-10 induction by both gangliosides was completely blocked by protein tyrosine kinase (PTK) inhibitors, herbimycin A, genistein, and tyrphostin AG 1288, but not by other signal transduction inhibitors. These results suggest that GD1a and GM3 may induce IL-10 production in T cells by regulating the PTK-dependent signaling pathway. These gangliosides may thus act as important immunoregulators via IL-10. 相似文献

Clinical animal models and in vitro data afford evidence for anti-leukaemia immunity. Many reports have underlined the interest of interleukin-7 (IL-7) use in cancer and its pivotal role in immune recognition. This cytokine, initially identified as a B cell growth factor, enhances the anti-tumour properties of immune effector cells via T lymphocyte activation, increased specific cytotoxicity and cytokine secretion. Nonetheless, few data are available regarding the effect of IL-7 on the expression at the leukaemia cell surface of molecules involved in the immune response, which defective expression could induce tolerance or anergy. This prompted us to study the effects of IL-7 on 20 cases of acute myeloid leukaemia (AML) and 9 cases of lymphoid leukaemia (ALL), in comparison with gamma-interferon, a potent inducer of immune regulation molecule expression. In AML and ALL, IL-7 increased MHC class I molecule expression, while class II molecules were weakly modified. The expression of the tumour necrosis factor family members CD40 and Fas/CD95, together with the adhesion molecules ICAM-1/CD54 and CD58/LFA-3, was also increased in both types of leukaemia. The IL-7 was an efficient inducer of B7-2/CD86 expression in AML and ALL, while increased expression of B7-1/CD80 was only observed in AML. In the corresponding, co-cultured T lymphocyte population, IL-7 more particularly increased B7-1/CD80 and CD58/LFA-3 expression. Finally, pre-incubation of leukaemic cells with IL-7 increased the proliferation of responding, normal allogenic T lymphocytes and their secretion of gamma-IFN and IL-2 in mixed the lymphocyte-tumour reaction. We concluded that IL-7 is efficient at increasing the membrane expression of molecules which are central for the development of the immune response, and at improving allogenic immune recognition. The clinical implications of such data require further in vivo investigation. 相似文献

To induce better stimulation of T cells during recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) therapy of renal cell carcinoma patients, pretreatment with low-dose CD3 monoclonal antibody (mAb) has been proposed. However, in our clinic, such a treatment did not induce additional activation of T cells. To investigate this we performed whole blood cell cultures with rIL-2 or CD3 mAb as a stimulant. Cultures using isolated blood mononuclear cells were used as a control. When stimulated by the addition of rIL-2, the lymphocyte composition and activation of whole blood cultures did not differ from those of mononuclear cell (MNC) cultures. However, when stimulation was performed with CD3 mAb, CD8bright+ cells in whole blood cultures were not or only minimally induced to express CD25 or IL-2 receptor (IL-2R\). This is in contrast to the situation found in MNC cultures where all CD8bright+ cells expressed CD25 or IL-2Rß to a high extent at the end of culture. When rIL-2 or recombinant interferon (rIFN) was added to whole blood cultures together with CD3 mAb, significantly more CD8bright+ cells were induced to express CD25 or IL-2Rß. These results suggest that whole blood cultures represent the in vivo situation better than MNC cultures. In addition, the results suggest that, also in vivo, administration of low-dose CD3 mAb alone might not be sufficient to induce IL-2R expression on CD8bright+ cells, and would therefore not induce additional specific T cell activation in rIL-2-based immunotherapy. The presented results suggest that in vivosimultaneous administration of rIFN or rIL-2 with low-dose CD3 mAb might induce better stimulation of CD8+ T cells than CD3 mAb only. 相似文献

We describe herein the enzyme behavior of MmNEU3, the plasma membrane-associated sialidase from mouse (Mus musculus). MmNEU3 is localized at the plasma membrane as demonstrated directly by confocal microscopy analysis. In addition, administration of the radiolabeled ganglioside GD1a to MmNEU3-transfected cells, under conditions that prevent lysosomal activity, led to its hydrolysis into ganglioside GM1, further indicating the plasma membrane topology of MmNEU3. Metabolic labeling with [1-(3)H]sphingosine allowed the characterization of the ganglioside patterns of COS-7 cells. MmNEU3 expression in COS-7 cells led to an extensive modification of the cell ganglioside pattern, i.e. GM3 and GD1a content was decreased to about one-third compared with mock-transfected cells. At the same time, a 35% increase in ganglioside GM1 content was observed. Mixed culture of MmNEU3-transfected cells with [1-(3)H]sphingosine-labeled cells demonstrates that the enzyme present at the cell surface is able to recognize gangliosides exposed on the membrane of nearby cells. Under these experimental conditions, the extent of ganglioside pattern changes was a function of MmNEU3 transient expression. Overall, the variations in GM3, GD1a, and GM1 content were very similar to those observed in the case of [1-(3)H]sphingosine-labeled MmNEU3-transfected cells, indicating that the enzyme mainly exerted its activity toward ganglioside substrates present at the surface of neighboring cells. These results indicate that the plasma membrane-associated sialidase MmNEU3 is able to hydrolyze ganglioside substrates in intact living cells at a neutral pH, mainly through cell-to-cell interactions. 相似文献

Two adenocarcinoma cell lines, Breast M25-SF and Breast M, were established from tumor tissue resected surgically from a patient with breast cancer. One, Breast M25-SF, expresses interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) on the cell surface and the other, Breast M, does not. The effects of recombinant inteleukin-2 (rIL-2) on the proliferation of these cell lines were investigated. The growth of Breast M25-SF was significantly promoted by rIL-2 ranging from 1,25 U/ml to 640 U/ml. Anti-CD25 (Tac) antibody, significantly blocked the growth enhancement of Breast M25-SF by rIL-2. Breast M, however, did not respond to rIL-2. To confirm more directly the promotion of Breast M25-SF growth by rIL-2, cloning of IL-2 responders from parent Breast M25-SF cells was carried out by limiting dilution without feeder cells in 96-well microplates. No colony formation was found in 24 wells without rIL-2. Eleven, 13 and 6 clones were established from groups of 24 wells containing rIL-2 at 200, 20 and 2 U/ml respectively. All of the clones expressed IL-2R and respond to rIL-2. By using a sensitive polymerase chain reaction technique, we demonstrated that Breast M25-SF but not Breast M expressed IL-2 mRNA, and IL-2 secretion from Breast M25-SF but not Breast M was also confirmed by radioimmunoassay. These findings suggest a role for IL-2 in autocrine support of Breast M25-SF growth. IL-2 may play an important role in the growth control of breast carcinoma cells. 相似文献

Reproducible generation of autonomous malignant sublines from non-tumorogenic murine interleukin 3-dependent mast cell lines 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Murine interleukin 3 (IL-3)-dependent permanent mast cell lines derived from normal mouse bone marrow were established using pokeweed mitogen-stimulated spleen cell conditioned medium (SCM) as a source of IL-3. When propagated continuously in media containing a high concentration of IL-3 (20% SCM or 20 U/ml murine recombinant IL-3 (rIL-3], all the cell lines remained strictly factor-dependent in vitro and non-tumorogenic in vivo. However, we were able to reproducibly generate autonomous sublines from cultures supplemented with low amounts of IL-3 (1% SCM or 2 U/ml rIL-3). Abrogation of exogeneous growth factor dependency was always associated with neoplastic transformation. In newly generated autonomous sublines an autocrine mechanism of growth regulation was evident in vitro. 相似文献

Summary The adoptive immunotherapy of human cancer using lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells in combination with high-dose systemic recombinant interleukin-2 (rIL-2) has been associated with global changes in several hematological and immunological parameters while imposing profound toxicity on patients. We have evaluated an alternative LAK cell therapy utilizing low-dose systemic rIL-2 in 27 consecutive patients with metastatic cancer. We report that the administration of systemic low-dose rIL-2 is also characterized by significant changes in immunological and hematological parameters, which are qualitatively similar to those induced by high-dose rIL-2. Low-dose systemic rIL-2, given by i.v. bolus, is cleared to baseline levels within 240 min of administration. The induction of lymphocytosis and eosinophilia, which has characterized other protocols, is also a feature of this protocol. In addition, low-dose systemic rIL-2/LAK cell immunotherapy results in increased peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) expression of T-cell activation markers such as OKIa, OKT10 and IL-2 receptor. PBMC sampled approximately 100 h after the final infusion of LAK cells demonstrated a statistically significant increase in their ability to kill natural killer (NK)-sensitive and NK-resistent cell lines such as K562 and Daudi compared to baseline values (P <.05). These data suggest that rIL-2-based immunotherapy using low-dose rIL-2 is capable of inducing quantitative hematological and immunological changes while (in combination with LAK cells) retaining the ability to mediate tumor regressionin vivo.
