目的:研究负载K-ras(12-Val)抗原的树突状细胞(DCs)活化的特异性细胞毒性T淋巴细胞(CTLs)对胰腺癌的体外杀伤作用。方法:联合应用粒细胞-巨噬细胞集落刺激因子(rhGM-CSF)和白细胞介素4(IL-4)诱导培养外周血DCs。表达K-ras突变体的胰腺癌细胞株全瘤、单纯K-ras突变体多肽和K-ras突变体表位肽阳离子纳米颗粒分别致敏DCs。流式细胞仪测定DCs表面标志;3H-TdR掺入法检测细胞增殖,125I-UdR法检测CTL杀伤效应,ELISA试剂盒检测IL-12和IFN-γ。结果:与单纯K-ras(12-Val)突变体多肽相比,K-ras(12-Val)突变体表位肽阳离子纳米颗粒在低浓度时即可被DCs有效提呈(P〈0.05);负载全瘤抗原的DCs诱导产生的CTL与负载单纯K-ras(12-Val)突变体多肽、K-ras(12-Val)突变体表位肽阳离子纳米颗粒诱导组相比对Patu8988(K-ras+)及SW1990(K-ras-)胰腺癌细胞均有明显杀伤活性(P〈0.05),负载单纯K-ras(12-Val)突变体多肽、K-ras(12-Val)突变体表位肽阳离子纳米颗粒的DCs诱导产生的CTL对Patu8988(K-ras+)细胞株有特异性杀伤活性(P〈0.05),而对SWl990(K-ras-)细胞株无杀伤作用(P〉0.05)。结论:低浓度K-ras(12-Val)突变体表位肽阳离子纳米颗粒作用后,在短时间即可被DCs有效提呈,且诱导产生的CTL对表达K-ras(12-Val)突变体的胰腺癌细胞株有特异性杀伤活性。
Objective:To investigate the antitumor efficiency of the special cytotoxic T lymphocytes(CTLs) activated by dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed with K-ras (12-Val) antigen.Methods: DCs was generated from PBMC in the presence of granuloceyte/macrophage-colony stimulating factor(GM-CSF),interleukin-4(IL-4)in vitro. DCs were differently sensitized with K-ras mntant pancreatic cancer cell line, K-ras( 12- Val) mutant peptide, K-ras(12-Val) mutant peptide with the surface of cationic nanoparticle. Cell surface markers on DCs was measured by flow cytometry. The activation of CTL induced by DCs was detected by ^3H-thymidine incorporation test. The killing effects of CIL to pancreatic cancer was detected by ^125I-UdR release test. Production of IL-12 and IFN-γ by DCs and PBMC was detected by ELISA. Results: Compared with DCs pulsed with K-ras(12-Val) mutant peptide and K-ras (12-Val) mutant peptide with the surface of cationic nanoparticle, DCs pulsed with whole tumor antigen could better induce CTLs killing activity(P 〈 0.05).The DCs with K-ras(12-Val) mutant peptide and K-ms mutant peptide with the surface of cationic nanoparticle could produce specific CTL killing activity aganist pancreatic cancer cell line Patu8988( K-ras + )(P〈0.05),but not SW1990(K-ras- )(P 〉 0.05). K-ras (12-Val) mutant peptide with the surface of cationic nanoparticle at lower concentrations can be effectively presenting on the surface of DCs than only K-ras (12-Val) mutant peptide. Conclusion: K-ms (12-Val) mutant peptide with cationic carrier can be effectively presenting and expression of DCs and induce CTL specific killing activity aganist pancreatic cancer cell lines with K-ras (12-Val) mutant peptide.
