Transplantability and sensitivity to natural killer cells of aclarubicin-resistant murine lymphoma.
نویسندگان
چکیده
DBA/2 mice implanted i.p. with an aclarubicin (ACR)-resistant subline of L5178Y cells survived 4- to 5-fold longer than those with the parental cells; and animals with the Adriamycin- or bleomycin-resistant subline displayed an intermediate survival period. The i.p. treatment of mice with cyclophosphamide markedly enhanced i.p. growth of the ACR-resistant cells, suggesting that a certain host defense mechanism participates in the lower transplantability. In vitro, the ACR-resistant subline showed much higher sensitivity to natural killer cells. The i.p. pretreatment with anti-asialo-GM1 antibody markedly reduced the mean survival period of mice implanted i.p. with the ACR-resistant cells, suggesting that natural killer cells play an important role in the defense against transplantation of the ACR-resistant cells.

SUSCEPTIBILITY OF HUMAN WM MELANOMA CELL LINES TO NK AND LAK CYTOTOXICITY AND THEIR RELEVANCE TO THE LEVEL OF MHC CLASS I AND ICAM-l ANTIGEN EXPRESSION
The effect of natural killer (NK) cells and lymphokine activated killer ( LAK) cells was studied on a group of human melanoma cell lines. Peripheral blood from healthy volunteers was utilized as a fresh source of natural killer cells and rhI L-2 for producing LAK cells. The cytotoxicity of effector cells was quantified using a 4 hour SI determining the density of antigen expression on tumor...
متن کاملOverexpression of murine fizzy-related (fzr) increases natural killer cell-mediated cell death and suppresses tumor growth.
Fizzy-related (fzr) is a recently identified 7WD domain family member implicated in cell cycle regulation of Drosophila and yeast. In this study, the murine homologue of fzr was isolated by suppression subtractive hybridization as a gene with decreased expression during malignant progression of a murine B-lymphoma cell line. Retroviral overexpression of fzr in B-lymphoma cells reduced tumor for...
متن کاملRecognition of asparagine-linked oligosaccharides on murine tumor cells by natural killer cells.
MDW4, a wheat germ agglutinin resistant mutant of the murine tumor line MDAY-D2, expresses abnormal asparagine-linked oligosaccharides, is less metastatic when injected intravenously, and is hypersensitive to natural killer (NK) lysis in vitro. To determine whether these phenotypes may be related, variants of the YAC-1 lymphoma and a YAC-1 X MDAY-D2 hybrid line were compared for sensitivity to ...
متن کاملThe role of NK cells in the regulation of experimental metastasis in a murine lymphoma system.
This report describes the role of natural killer (NK) cells in regulating the localization of two closely related murine lymphomas (ASL1 and ASL1w) to various organ sites. These tumors are phenotypically similar yet differ in their overall malignancy and experimental metastatic pattern. Both tumors show similar patterns of migration in kinetic studies, however, they vary in their NK susceptibil...
متن کاملAnti-KIR antibody enhancement of anti-lymphoma activity of natural killer cells as monotherapy and in combination with anti-CD20 antibodies.
Natural killer (NK) cells mediate antilymphoma activity by spontaneous cytotoxicity and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) when triggered by rituximab, an anti-CD20 monoclonal antibody (mAb) used to treat patients with B-cell lymphomas. The balance of inhibitory and activating signals determines the magnitude of the efficacy of NK cells by spontaneous cytotoxicity. Here, using...
