Efficient killing of radioresistant breast cancer cells by cytokine-induced killer cells [PDF]
Tumor Biology, 2017 Recurrence of breast cancer after radiotherapy may be partly explained by the presence of radioresistant cells. Thus, it would be desirable to develop an effective therapy against radioresistant cells. In this study, we demonstrated the intense antitumor

Revving up natural killer cells and cytokine-induced killer cells against hematological malignancies [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2015 Natural killer (NK) cells belong to innate immunity and exhibit cytolytic activity against infectious pathogens and tumor cells. NK-cell function is finely tuned by receptors that transduce inhibitory or activating signals, such as killer immunoglobulin ...

Cytokine-induced killer cells promote antitumor immunity [PDF]
Journal of Translational Medicine, 2013 The number of immune cells, especially dendritic cells and cytotoxic tumor infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL), particularly Th1 cells, CD8 T cells, and NK cells is associated with increased survival of cancer patients.

Biological Character of RetroNectin Activated Cytokine-Induced Killer Cells [PDF]
Journal of Immunology Research, 2016 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
GMS German Medical Science, 2007 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 Pharmacological Tools for Cancer Immunotherapy [PDF]
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are a heterogeneous population of effector CD3+CD56+ natural killer T cells, which can be easily expanded in vitro from peripheral blood mononuclear cells.

Cytokine Induced Killer Cells as Promising Immunotherapy for Solid Tumors [PDF]
Journal of Cancer, 2011 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
