Biological Character of RetroNectin Activated Cytokine-Induced Killer Cells [PDF]
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) using autologous cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells is a promising treatment for metastatic carcinomas. In this study, we investigated the impact of RetroNectin on the proliferation, phenotype alternation, cytokine secretion,

Cytokine-induced killer cells are type II natural killer T cells
Background: Until now, cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells were assumed to be part of the type I natural killer T (NKT) cell population, but it was not yet investigated if this is correct.

Cytokine Induced Killer Cells as Promising Immunotherapy for Solid Tumors [PDF]
Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are a heterogeneous subset of ex-vivo expanded T lymphocytes which present a mixed T-NK phenotype and are endowed with a MHC-unrestricted antitumor activity. The main functional properties of CIK cells may address some

Effect of chaetocin on renal cell carcinoma cells and cytokine-induced killer cells [PDF]
We examined the cytotoxic effects of chaetocin on clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC) cells and the possibility to combine the effects of chaetocin with the effects of cytokine-induced killer cells (CIK) assayed by MTT assay and FACS analysis ...

Characterisation of CD8neg and CD8+ human natural killer cell subsets [PDF]
NK cells are CD3neg CD56+ lymphocytes that constitute about 10-15% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. They have an innate ability to recognise and kill virus infected cells and tumour cells.
