Efficient lysis of rhabdomyosarcoma cells by cytokine-induced killer cells: implications for adoptive immunotherapy after allogeneic stem cell transplantation [PDF]
Background Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in childhood and has a poor prognosis. Here we assessed the capability of ex vivo expanded cytokine-induced killer cells to lyse both alveolar and embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines ...

Efficacy of modified dendritic cell–cytokine-induced killer cells loaded with tumour stem cell membrane microparticle therapy in the treatment of relapsed or refractory T- and NK-cell lymphoid proliferations and lymphomas: a report of three cases [PDF]
The prognosis of relapsed or refractory T-cell and NK-cell lymphoid proliferations and lymphomas (R/R T/NK-LPD/LYM) remains poor. Modified dendritic cell–cytokine-induced killer (DC–CIK) cells loaded with tumour stem cell (TSC) membrane microparticles ...

Altered thymic differentiation and modulation of arthritis by invariant NKT cells expressing mutant ZAP70 [PDF]
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells can be subsetted based on their cytokine productions. Here the authors show, using Zap70 mutant mice, that interferon-γ secreting (IFN-γ) iNKT cells may be induced by hampered T cell receptor signallings to help ...
