Summary The antitumor effects of the streptococcal preparation OK-432 were analyzed in a murine ovarian teratocarcinoma (MOT) model. Administration of OK-432 i.p. prevented tumor outgrowth in 75% of mice challenged with 103 MOT cells i.p. 24 h previously. Treatment was less successful in mice challenged with 104 or 105 cells, preventing tumor growth in 25% of the former and only 5% of the latter group. Tumor-challenged mice cured by injections of OK-432 were not rendered resistant to a subsequent challenge with 103 MOT cells 75 days after initial treatment. Only the i.p. route of administration was effective as i.v. OK-432 did not prolong survival of tumor-challenged mice. An antitumor response was detected as early as 24 h after i.p. treatment. This correlated temporally with an influx of neutrophils into the peritoneal cavity. Peritoneal cells obtained between 6 and 24 h after treatment were capable of lysing MOT targets in vitro. A single cell cytotoxicity assay demonstrated that peritoneal neutrophils, elicited by i.p. injection of OK-432, could bind to and lyse MOT targets. These data indicate that OK-432 is effective against small tumor cell inocula in this murine model of ovarian cancer and, furthermore, that the neutrophilic response into the peritoneal cavity plays a role in tumor rejection. 相似文献

Summary When Lactobacillus casei YIT 9018 (LC 9018) or Corynebacterium parvum, known to be immunomodulators possessing antitumor activity, were injected i.p. into BALB/c mice, peritoneal exudate macrophage Ia antigen detected by indirect immunofluorescence method was expressed on their cell surface, but it was not expressed following the injection of 10% proteose peptone, an inflammatory agent, or Lactobacillus fermentum YIT 0159 (LF 0159), which have no antitumor activity. The percentage and absolute number of Ia-positive peritoneal macrophages were maximum on the 7th day after the injection of LC 9018. Immunization by injection of Meth A fibrosarcoma cells treated with mitomycin C (MMC-Meth A) 7 days after LC 9018 injection suppressed the growth of Meth A implanted i.p. 14 days after MMC-Meth A injection. A shorter interval between the injections of LC 9018 and MMC-Meth A did not allow suppression of Meth A growth. These results showed that the increase in Ia-positive macrophages in the peritoneal cavity coincided with the effective interval for induction of the antitumor activity by LC 9018. The antitumor activity induced by injections of LC 9018 and MMC-Meth A did not affect the growth of RL l leukemic cells, syngeneic to BALB/c mice. Neutralization (Winn type) tests showed that peritoneal T lymphocytes possessed tumor cytotoxicity and that the antitumor capacity was reduced by in vivo treatment with anti I-Ad monoclonal antibody simultaneously with and 1 day prior to MMC-Meth A injection. These results indicate that LC 9018-induced Ia-positive macrophages, which first encounter a tumor antigen in the peritoneal cavity, play an important role in the in vivo induction of tumor specific T cell-mediated antitumor immunity. 相似文献

The rejection of a murine ovarian teratocarcinoma (MOT) after i.p. injection of Corynebacterium parvum was investigated. Treatment with C. parvum (1400 micrograms) 24 hr after i.p. inoculation of a lethal number of tumor cells (10(5] induced an antitumor effect that cured 75 to 95% of the mice. Morphologic analysis and an in vivo cytotoxicity assay that measured the rate of disappearance of radioactivity from the peritoneal cavity after injection of 125IUdR-labeled tumor cells indicated that the antitumor effect was initiated during the first 24 hr after C. parvum injection. During this period of time, host effector cells retrieved from the peritoneal cavity prevented tumor growth in a Winn assay and lysed radiolabeled MOT targets in a 4-hr Cr-release assay. After separation of peritoneal inflammatory cells on a Percoll gradient, neutrophil-enriched fractions demonstrated significant in vitro tumor lysis, but neutrophil-depleted populations were ineffective. Microscopic analysis of lysis at the single cell level confirmed that neutrophils were binding to and lysing MOT targets. Further characterization of these tumor cytolytic neutrophils revealed that they are nylon wool-adherent, not generated in indomethacin-pretreated mice (but effectively generated in whole body-irradiated mice), and achieve lysis within 30 min after binding to MOT targets. These results indicate that neutrophils must be considered potential antitumor effectors that can be recruited by treatment with biologic response modifiers. 相似文献

Summary The local cellular response induced by intraperitoneal injection of mitomycin C was examined in terms of cell-mediated cytotoxicity for tumor cells. An in vitro cytolysis assay involving 125I-iododeoxyuridine-labeled tumor target cells revealed that treatment of normal ACI/N rats (200 g) with a single intraperitoneal injection of mitomycin C (50, 100, or 200 g) induced tumoricidal macrophages in the peritoneal cavity. The tumoricidal activity was dependent on the dose of mitomycin C injected and it was detectable as early as 1 day after the intraperitoneal injection of mitomycin C. In addition to the increased tumoricidal activity, the functional activities of the peritoneal macrophages were found to be increased with respect both to uptake of 2-deoxy-d-glucose and to phagocytosis of latex beads. Additional experiments excluded the possibility that the tumor cell cytolysis was the result of direct cytotoxicity by mitomycin C that might have been incorporated in the peritoneal macrophages or of nutrient depletion in the medium during the cytolysis assay. Furthermore, endotoxin contamination of the mitomycin C, which might have produced the activated macrophages, was not detected. The mechanism by which mitomycin C injected intraperitoneally induced the tumoricidal macrophages locally remains uncertain; however, it is possible also in clinical situations. 相似文献

Summary Nonadherent cells of the bone marrow of C3H/HeN mice were incubated for 3 days with the culture supernatant of an L-929 cell line containing macrophage-colony-stimulating factor. Approximately, 70% of the cells became phagocytic, adherent to plastic dishes and positive for nonspecific esterase staining. The adherent cells exhibited a weak tumoricidal activity against MM48 syngeneic mammary carcinoma cells, and the cytotoxicity was strongly augmented by the addition of bacterial lipopolysaccharide to the cytotoxicity assay. The cytotoxicity induced by lipopolysaccharide was also shown to be mediated by Thy1.2– and asialo-GM1+ cells, and was abrogated by the addition of carrageenan. Macrophage-colony-stimulating-factor-producing (D66) and nonproducing (A23) variants were separated from the MM48 tumor line in in vitro culture following limiting dilution. There was no difference between these two variants in either the in vitro growth rate or the susceptibility to macrophage-mediated cytotoxicity. C3H/HeN mice inoculated i.p. with D66 survived longer than did those inoculated i.p. with A23. C3H/HeN mice bearing D66 or A23 as an ascitic form were given i.p. injections of Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton (N-CWS). N-CWS significantly prolonged the survival period of mice bearing D66, whereas it exhibited no apparent antitumor effect on mice bearing A23. The increase in the cell number of D66 in the peritoneal cavity was significantly retarded, compared with that of A23. In contrast, the number of peritoneal macrophages increased more in D66-bearing mice than in A23-bearing mice. The increase in the peritoneal macrophage number was further augmented by an i.p. injection of N-CWS. Peritoneal macrophages of D66-bearing mice exhibited apparent tumoricidal activity against MM48 tumor cells in the presence of lipopolysaccharide, and the cytotoxicity was significantly augmented by i.p. injection of N-CWS. On the other hand, the responsiveness of peritoneal macrophages to lipopolysaccharide was found to be poor in A23-bearing mice and the tumoricidal activity was only weakly augmented by N-CWS. These results strongly suggest that M-CSF plays an important role not only in the maturation of macrophage progenitors but also in the induction and the accumulation of activated macrophages.

Summary Murine peritoneal macrophages harvested 3–4 days after IP injection of vaccinia virus lysed S91-melanoma tumor cells in vitro; enhanced tumoricidal activity was measured with effector macrophages prepared 5–6 days after vaccinia virus infection. Treatment of virus-elicited macrophages prepared from DBA/2 mice with anti-asialo-GM1 antiserum, anti-Thy 1.2 antiserum or anti-Iad antiserum in the presence of complement so that cells sensitized with antibodies were lysed, did not reduce the measured level of tumoricidal activity indicating that macrophages [Ia(–); asialo GM1(–)] and not natural killer cells [asialo GM1(+); Thy 1.2(±)] or T-cells [Thy 1.2(+)] were responsible for mediating the lysis of S91-melanoma tumor cells. When incubated with virus-elicited macrophages but not thioglycollate-elicited macrophages, the ability of S91-melanoma tumor cells, to synthesize DNA was completely blocked. The results of these experiments support the view that one aspect of antitumor immunity enhanced during immunotherapy with vaccinia virus is the activation of macrophages which have cytolytic as well as cytostatic effects on melanoma tumor cells. 相似文献

Summary The effectiveness ofN-acetylmuramyl-l-alanyl-d-isoglutamine (MDP) or of liposomes containing a lipophilic MDP derivative, MDP-glyceroyldipalmitate MDP-GDP in inhibiting the growth of M5076 reticulum cell sarcoma liver metastases in C57BL/6 mice has been determined. MDP (100 µg) or liposomal MDP-GDP (2.5 µmol containing 1 µg) were equally effective in inhibiting liver metastatic growth when given as a single treatment 3 days before tumor cell injection. Therapeutic treatment, initiated 3 days after tumor cell injection and continued for a period of 2 weeks, failed to inhibit metastatic growth. Activation of thioglycollate-elicited peritoneal macrophages or Kupffer cells in vitro with MDP or liposomal MDP-GDP resulted in the expression of tumoricidal activity against M5076 tumor cells. Adoptive cellular therapy with four injections of 2 × 106 macrophages was ineffective: activation of the macrophages with either MDP or liposomal MDP-GDP prior to injection was effective in inhibiting liver metastatic growth. Incorporation of the macrophage toxin dichlorodimethylene diphosphonate within liposomes containing MDP-GDP abolished the ability of such liposomes to induce macrophage or Kupffer cell tumoricidal activity in vitro as well as the antitumor activity when administered 3 days before tumor cell challenge. 相似文献

Summary DBA/2 mice were immunized i.p. against syngeneic SL2 lymphosarcoma cells. At various days after the last immunization peritoneal and spleen lymphocytes were collected. The lymphocyte suspensions were enriched for T-cells by nylon wool filtration.The peritoneal T-cells from immunized mice (a) expressed direct specific antitumor cytotoxicity in vitro, (b) induced macrophage cytotoxicity in vitro, and (c) exerted tumor neutralization measured in a Winn-type assay. Spleen T-cells from these immunized mice (a) expressed no direct specific antitumor cytotoxicity in vitro, (b) only induced moderate macrophage cytotoxicity in vitro, but (c) exerted tumor neutralization in a Winn assay.For effective tumor neutralization in vivo effector target cell ratios of 1000:1 were required. When the effector/target ratio of 1000:1 was maintained but the absolute numbers of effector and target cells were lowered from 106 to 105 lymphocytes and 103 to 102 target cells respectively, no tumor neutralization was obtained.The major effect of the sensitized-transferred T-lymphocytes seemed to be the induction of cytotoxic macrophages in the (naive) recipient mice, as the peritoneal macrophages collected from the recipient mice 7 days after i.p. injection of a mixture of sensitized T-cells and tumor cells were cytotoxic. Purified peritoneal T-lymphocytes collected from these recipient mice were able to induce macrophage cytotoxicity in vitro but expressed no cytotoxic T-cell activity.In conclusion, our results show that in the tumor system used, tumor neutralization after transfer of sensitized lymphocytes is not dependent on the presence of cytotoxic T-lymphocytes. Lymphocytes with the strongest potency to render macrophages cytotoxic (in vitro and in vivo) also induce the best tumor neutralization in vivo, suggesting an important role for host macrophages as antitumor effector cells. 相似文献

ONO-4007 is a novel synthetic analog of lipid A subunit and has been shown to exert antitumor activities on various experimental tumors with less toxicity than lipopolysaccharide. It remains unclear, however, what biological activities of this compound are relevant to its antitumor effects. We therefore investigated the activation of macrophages by ONO-4007 in vitro and in vivo and its implication in antitumor effects, using mouse MM46 mammary tumor as an experimental model. Intravenous injection of ONO-4007 produced significant therapeutic effects on this solid tumor. ONO-4007 could stimulate glycogen-elicited peritoneal macrophages in vitro, not only to produce tumor necrosis factor (TNF), but also to exert cytocidal activities against MM46 cells in vitro. Substantial TNF production was induced in tumor tissue by i. v. injection of ONO-4007, and its successive administration to tumor-bearing mice gave tumor-infiltrating macrophages a prominent in vitro tumoricidal activity and primed them for in vitro TNF secretion. These results suggest that activation of tumor-infiltrating macrophages to a direct tumoricidal state as well as to TNF secretion in tumor tissues may be at least some of the antitumor effects of this novel lipid A analog. 相似文献

Summary NaIO4 treatment of mouse adherent peritoneal cells or lymphocyte-free cloned macrophages enhances their cytotoxic and tumoricidal activity. 5×10–3 M NaIO4 treatment of nontumoricidal BCG-activated macrophages renders them completely tumoricidal, whereas the same treatment of stimulated (peptone-normal) macrophages renders them weakly tumoricidal. Addition of LPS in nanogram quantities too low to enhance tumor cell killing by untreated peptone-normal macrophages causes NaIO4-treated peptone-normal macrophages to be maximally tumoricidal. The activating action of NaIO4, MAF, or LPS can be potently, but inconsistently, blocked or reversed by the reducing agent NaBH4 or the aldehyde-reacting agent dimedone. NaIO4 treatment of lymphocyte-free macrophage colonies does not make them cytotoxic, but NaIO4-treated colony macrophages are cytotoxic for tumor cells when cultured in 10 ng/ml LPS (an amount of LPS inadequate to render untreated colony macrophages cytotoxic). Supernatants of NaIO4-treated adherent peritoneal cells contain MAF activity. Thus, the NaIO4-induced enhancement of peritoneal cell tumoricidal activity may result from both direct NaIO4 activating effects on macrophages and indirect NaIO4 effects through NaIO4-induced MAF production. 相似文献

The antitumor activity of peritoneal exudate cells (PEC) induced by murine interleukin-5 (mIL-5) was examined using Meth-A sarcoma cells transplanted into the peritoneal cavity of mice. Although in vitro treatment of Meth-A sarcoma cells with mIL-5 did not result in inhibition of their growth, treatment of mice intraperitoneally with mIL-5 (1 g/day) from day –5 to +5 (tumor cells were inoculated on day 0) led to a significant increase in survival or even rejection of tumor cells. This antitumor effect depended on the dose of mIL-5. Interestingly, there was identical therapeutic activity when the protocol of days –10 to –1 was used as opposed to –5 to +5. In addition, post-treatment with mIL-5 from day +1 to +10 was ineffective. This suggests that the therapeutic activity of IL-5 is largely prophylactic. Under the former condition, the number of PEC was found to increase over 50-fold when compared to levels in control mice. Moreover, the antitumor effect of mIL-5 was completely abolished by subcutaneous injection of anti-mIL-5 monoclonal antibodies. The treatment of mice injected intraperitoneally with human IL-2 also resulted in an increase in survival. Winn assay experiments using PEC recovered from mIL-5-treated mice (1g/day, from day –10 to –1) revealed that these PEC could mediate antitumor activity against Meth-A sarcoma cells. Furthermore, when the cured mice were re-injected with Meth-A sarcoma cells or syngeneic MOPC 104E cells, they could reject Meth-A sarcoma cells but not MOPC 104E cells, indicating that immune memory had been generated. These results suggest that IL-5 augumented the PEC tumoricidal activity but we have no indication that the tumoricidal activity was mediated through a mIL-5-dependent mechanism. 相似文献

There is a marked increase in the number of peritoneal leukocytes (lymphocytes, monocytes and granulocytes) during the growth of Ehrlich ascites tumor in mice. No local proliferation (as indicated by a labeling at 1 hr following a single 3H-TdR injection) was observed in the normal peritoneal leukocytes or those in the ascites tumor, except for a very minor labeling of some tumor macrophages. Kinetics of peritoneal leukocytes was studied with a series of twelve injections of 3H-thymidine (20 μCi every 8 hr) in normal mice as well as mice injected with 106 tumor cells i.p. 2 hr after the last 3H-TdR injection. Animals were sacrificed at intervals up to 6 days. Granulocyte labeling in the blood as well as peritoneal space was near 100% in both groups of animals at all the intervals. Temporal changes in the labeling of lymphocytes (from 10% at 0 day to 22% at day 6), and monocytes (from 20% at 0 day to 57% at day 6) were identical in the blood and peritoneal space of normal animals, indicating a free exchange of cells between these compartments. Higher labeling indices than those in the controls were attained in the blood of tumor-bearing hosts (viz 40% for lymphocytes and 80% for monocytes at 6 days) suggesting an increased turnover of these cells in the circulation. In addition, peritoneal mononuclear cells of tumor-bearing mice showed even a higher labeling than those in the blood (viz 65% for lymphocytes and 92% for monocytes at 6 days) indicating a selective migration and/or retention of newly formed cells within the tumor, in contrast to a random migration into the normal peritoneal cavity. Furthermore, an identical labeling of macrophages to that of monocytes within the tumor indicated a short monocyte-macrophage transition. The preferential accumulation of young mononuclear cells into the tumor may be of functional importance. 相似文献

Frog skin is a source of peptides with various biological properties. Frenatin 2.1S, derived from norepinephrine-stimulated skin secretions of the Orinoco lime tree frog Sphaenorhynchus lacteus, exhibits immunostimulatory effects as demonstrated by the promotion of proinflammatory phenotypes of mononuclear cells in mouse peritoneal cavity and spleen. The aim of this study was to identify the populations of host cells sensitive to the action of frenatin 2.1S in vivo and to study its effects on their functional antitumor capacity. A single injection of frenatin 2.1S (100 μg) in BALB/c mice increased the presence of peritoneal CD11c+ dendritic cells and CD3+ T cells 24 h after administration and there was a significant increase in the number of IL-17 and CXCR3 expressing inflammatory T cells. Frenatin 2.1S treatment also increased the number of TNF-α expressing F4/80+ proinflammatory M1 macrophages. The most striking finding of the study is the marked increase of the number of peritoneal natural killer (NK) cells following frenatin 2.1S injection. Further, frenatin 2.1S administration led to activation of NK cells as evaluated by increased expression of NKG2D, FasL, CD69 and CD107a. The increased ratio of interferon-γ vs. IL-10 producing NK cells is further indication of the proinflammatory action of frenatin 2.1S. Peptide treatment enhanced the tumoricidal action of peritoneal NK cells on 4T1 mouse mammary carcinoma cells as revealed by the real-time automated monitoring of cell status. Our data demonstrate that frenatin 2.1S promotes activation and cytotoxic capacity of NK cells and should be regarded as a candidate for antitumor immunotherapy. 相似文献

Summary Mice inoculated IP with L1210 murine leukemia vaccine and subsequently with pyran copolymer-induced macrophages (pyran-M) lived for a prolonged time after live L1210 inoculation IP. Pyran-M as tentatively identified by anti-AcM.1 monoclonal antibody expressed I-Ad antigen in tumor vaccine-primed recipient mice and contributed to maintaining I-Ad antigen positive (I-Ad+) macrophages at high cell density in the peritoneal cavity of recipient mice. The relevance of these I-Ad+ cells to the host antitumor response was examined by experiments in which I-Ad+ cell density in the peritoneal cavity and host antitumor response behaved in a parallel fashion. Human interferon-A/D, an agent selectively inhibiting Ia antigen expression, and silica, a general antimacrophage agent, strongly suppressed I-Ad antigen expression of peritoneal mcrophages of tumor vaccine-primed and pyran-M-inoculated mice and, consistently with this, the antitumor response was nullified in these mice. Tumor vaccine-primed mice inoculated with sodium caseinate or thioglycollate-induced peritoneal cells did not survive L1210 inoculation and, in these mice, I-Ad+ peritoneal macrophages were suppressed in number as compared with those of tumor vaccine-primed and pyran-M-inoculated mice. These results warrant further study on the contribution of I-Ad+ macrophages to pyran copolymer-induced augmentation of the antitumor response in tumor vaccine-primed mice. 相似文献

Mice infected with Schistosoma mansoni develop a dramatic (five- to eightfold) increase in numbers of peritoneal leukocytes, and approximately 65% of these cells are macrophages. By several biochemical and cytochemical criteria, these cells were comparable to resident peritoneal macrophages of normal mice. However, macrophages from schistosome-infected mice exhibited significant nonspecific tumoricidal activity in vitro, a function associated with immunologically activated cells. The time course for development of activated macrophages in the peritoneal cavity was dependent upon the route of infection. Cytotoxic cells were present in the peritoneal cavity by 3 weeks after intraperitoneal infection, but were not evident until several weeks later in animals infected percutaneously, subcutaneously, or intravenously. However, by 3 weeks after subcutaneous infection, tumoricidal macrophages appeared in the peritoneal cavity after intraperitoneal challenge with soluble schistosome antigens. Macrophage activation was independent of the development of egg granulomas, since tumoricidal cells could be found prior to the onset of egg production and were also present in mice infected with only male worms. Development of activated macrophages in these instances is thus consistent with previous observations on induction of T lymphocyte reactivity toward schistosomula. Since other manipulations known to activate macrophages have been shown to induce partial resistance to schistosome infection, the finding that macrophage activation results from primary S. mansoni infection itself suggests that these cells may play a major role in acquired immunity to this parasite. 相似文献

Summary The purpose of these studies was to determine whether macrophages of mice pretreated with the chemotherapeutic agent adriamycin (ADR) could be systemically activated by IV injection of liposomes containing muramyl tripeptide phosphatidylethanolamine (MTP-PE), a lipophilic derivative of muramyl dipeptide. Lower than normal levels of alveolar macrophages or peritoneal exudate macrophages were found in mice following IV injection of ADR. This decrease was dose-dependent and, in mice given <10 mg ADR/kg, it was transient (14 days). Peritoneal macrophages surviving the administration of 15 mg ADR/kg were tumoricidal.At various times after single or repeated administration of ADR, mice were given IV or IP injections of liposomes containing MTP-PE. One day thereafter, the cytotoxic activity of the in situ-activated macrophages (alveolar or peritoneal exudate) was assessed in culture against syngeneic melanoma cells. Our data demonstrate that under defined conditions the systemic administration of ADR does not interfere with the in situ activation of tumoricidal properties of murine macrophages after IV injection of liposomes containing a macrophage-activating agent. 相似文献

Summary DBA/2 mice were immunized against the syngeneic SL2 lymphoma by two or five injections with irradiated lymphoma cells given IP or SC, respectively. The antitumor efficacy induced in immunized mice was tested by (a) IP injection of the immunized mice with nonirradiated tumor cells and (b) transfer of the total immune peritoneal exudate, the cellular fraction only, or the cell-free fraction only, IP into tumor-bearing recipients, or (c) tumor neutralization tests (Winn assay). It was shown that immunized mice were able to reject 5×107 SL2 tumor cells (8 of 14 mice survived >100 days), while in most transfer experiments 2×105 SL2 cells could be eradicated. In the tumor neutralization experiments a number of 106 SL2 cells were eradicated. When the immune exudates were given before the inoculations of SL2 tumor cells the number of survivors increased significantly. Further, it was shown that the cellular fraction is the major contributor to the antitumor effect in the transfer experiments, since there was no significant difference in tumor eradication after injection of a complete immune exudate and after injection of the isolated cellular fraction. Injection of the noncellular fraction had no measurable antitumor effect. An increase in the number of injections with total peritoneal exudates from immunized mice did not result in an increase in tumor eradication in the tumor-bearing recipients.Extra stimulation (IP) of immunized mice with 104 nonirradiated cells 6 days after the last immunization resulted in an increase of the antitumor efficacy of these peritoneal exudates of these mice when collected 4–24 h after this stimulation. Extra stimulation with 106 irradiated cells had no measurable effect. 相似文献

Murine alveolar and peritoneal macrophages harvested after injection of lymphokines encapsulated within multilamellar phospholipid vesicles (liposomes) were tumoricidal in vitro. The state and degree of activation depended on the route of liposome administration. Activation of peritoneal macrophages was achieved by intraperitoneal injection of liposomes and alveolar macrophages were activated by injecting liposomes intravenously but not intraperitoneally. The in vivo rendering of macrophages with tumoricidal properties might be useful toward destruction of tumor cells in vivo. 相似文献

Summary The lyophilized, squalene-treated Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton (N-CWS) was confirmed to produce tumoricidal peritoneal macrophages resulting in inhibition of tumor growth when injected locally into the syngeneic ascites fibrosarcoma, AMC 60 in ACI/N rats. Furthermore, N-CWS was found to augment therapeutic effect when administered repeatedly after a single local injection of mitomycin-C (MMC). To analyze the effects, various in vitro cytolysis assays were performed using N-CWS-activated peritoneal macrophages. When tumor target cells were exposed in vitro to MMC, the resulting cytolysis in the presence of N-CWS-activated macrophages was similar to cytolysis of intact target cells. On the other hand, when N-CWS-activated macrophages were exposed to MMC, the tumoricidal activity was lost significantly, depending on exposure to MMC. When tumor target cells and N-CWS-activated macrophages were simultaneously exposed to MMC, tumor-cell cytolysis was strikingly depressed. In the final experiment, combined injection of MMC and N-CWS into the ascites tumor resulted in remarkable increases not only in peritoneal exudate cell number, but also in in vitro tumoricidal activity of peritoneal macrophages as compared to those induced by either agent alone. In addition, the production of tumoricidal macrophages by IP injection of MMC alone was also noticeable, as described previously. These results possibly indicate the involvement of macrophage activation in induction of therapeutic effect in chemoimmunotherapy.This work was supported in part by grants from the Ministry of Health and Welfare, and the Ministry of Education, Science and Culture 相似文献

CD4+8– T lymphocytes with potent antitumor activity in vivo were obtained in peritoneal exudate cells by immunizing mice with irradiated MM48 tumor cells admixed with OK-432. These immune CD4+ T cells were used in adoptive immunotherapy for prevention of lymph node metastases after removal of the primary tumor. Complete cure of metastases was obtained by adoptive transfer of CD4+ T cells admixed with irradiated MM48 tumor cells, but not by CD4+ T cells alone. To analyze the curative effect of admixing tumor cells on the prevention of metastases, a model of 1-day tumor inoculated with macrophages was used. Administration of immune CD4+ T cells alone resulted in the regression of local tumor in more than half of the mice, although all of them eventually died of lymph node metastases. On the other hand, adoptive transfer of immune CD4+ T cells plus irradiated tumor cells resulted in the complete regression of local tumors in all the mice, which survived without any sign of metastasis. The curative effect of the immune CD4+ T cells obtained by admixing irradiated tumor cells was tumor-specific. Macrophages induced by OK-432 (tumoricidal), implanted together with tumor, assisted tumor regression more than did macrophages elicited by proteose peptone (nontumoricidal) in the same adoptive transfer system. Administration of recombinant interleukin-2 instead of stimulant tumor cells did not enhance, but rather eliminated the constitutive antitumor activity of CD4+ T cells. On the other hand, exogenous recombinant interleukin-1 was more effective in the enhancement of antitumor activity of the CD4+ T cells as compared with stimulant tumor cell administration. In this case, the activating states of macrophages at the implanted tumor site had no influence on the therapeutic efficacy. A possible role of macrophages for induction of tumor-specific cytotoxic T cells that were mediated by tumor-specific CD4+ T cells is discussed. 相似文献
