Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cell therapy for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma: efficacy and safety [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Purpose To evaluate the efficacy of cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cell therapy in the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma. Materials and methods Randomized phase II and III trials on CIK cell-based therapy were identified by electronic searches using a

Activation of natural killer cells during microbial infections. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Natural killer (NK) cells are large granular lymphocytes that express a diverse array of germline encoded inhibitory and activating receptors for MHC Class I and Class I-like molecules, classical co-stimulatory ligands, and cytokines.

Treatment of multiple solitary plasmacytomas with cytokine-induced killer cells [PDF]

open access: yesCytotherapy, 2014
Currently available treatment methods for advanced plasmacytoma include surgery, chemotherapy, radiotherapy, immunomodulatory agents, hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and donor lymphocyte infusion. We report a case of advanced refractory multiple solitary plasmacytomas in a 68-year-old Asian man with multiple bone lesions, in whom autologous ...

Enhancing cytokine-induced killer cell therapy of multiple myeloma [PDF]

open access: yesExperimental Hematology, 2013
Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are in clinical testing against various tumor types, including multiple myeloma. In this study, we show that CIK cells have activity against subcutaneous and disseminated models of human myeloma (KAS-6/1), which can be enhanced by infecting the CIK cells with an oncolytic measles virus (MV) or by pretreating the ...

The activating receptors 2B4 and NTB-A, but not CRACC are subject to ligand-induced down-regulation on human natural killer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Activation of natural killer cells can be mediated by different receptors. Stimulation of the receptors 2B4, NTB-A and CRACC, members of the SLAM-related receptor family, induces cytotoxicity and cytokine production.

Human Cytokine-Induced Memory-Like Natural Killer Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Innate Immunity, 2015
Natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphoid cells that are important for host defense against infection and mediate antitumor responses. Recent reports from several laboratories have identified that NK cells can remember a prior activation event and consequently respond more robustly when restimulated, a property termed innate NK cell memory. NK cell

Adoptive cell therapy of triple negative breast cancer with redirected cytokine-induced killer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Cytokine-Induced Killer (CIK) cells share several functional and phenotypical properties of both T and natural killer (NK) cells. They represent an attractive approach for cell-based immunotherapy, as they do not require antigen-specific priming for ...
