Cell surface adhesiveness, immunogenicity and immunosensitivity of tumour vaccines modified by the CD80 gene transfection was examined and compared to that of the parental MC12 murine sarcoma. Insertion of the CD80 gene substantially enhanced the adhesiveness of the genetically modified tumour cells to nylon wool non-adherent (T) but not to nylon wool adherent (B) lymphocytes. The increased adhesive interaction could be inhibited by anti-CD80 monoclonal antibody. CD80+ transfectants were more sensitive to the cytotolytic effect of MC12-immune splenocytes and IL-2-activated spleen cells than the parental MC12 sarcoma. Similarly, spleen cells from syngeneic mice immunized with CD80+ transfectants displayed a higher cytolytic activity when allowed to react with MC12 cells than splenocytes from mice immunized with the parental MC12 cells. These results suggest that a positive correlation exists among the expression of the CD80 molecules, T cell adhesion to the genetically modified cells, immunosensitivity of the CD80+ transfectants and the capacity of the transfectants to activate cytolytic, tumour-reactive effector cells in vivo. This correlation provides a rationale for gene therapy based on the construction of CD80- modified tumour vaccines.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D013154 Spleen An encapsulated lymphatic organ through which venous blood filters.
D013601 T-Lymphocytes Lymphocytes responsible for cell-mediated immunity. Two types have been identified - cytotoxic (T-LYMPHOCYTES, CYTOTOXIC) and helper T-lymphocytes (T-LYMPHOCYTES, HELPER-INDUCER). They are formed when lymphocytes circulate through the THYMUS GLAND and differentiate to thymocytes. When exposed to an antigen, they divide rapidly and produce large numbers of new T cells sensitized to that antigen.

D014162 Transfection The uptake of naked or purified DNA by CELLS, usually meaning the process as it occurs in eukaryotic cells. It is analogous to bacterial transformation (TRANSFORMATION, BACTERIAL) and both are routinely employed in GENE TRANSFER TECHNIQUES. Transfections
