MicroRNA profiling of CD3+CD56+ cytokine-induced killer cells [PDF]

Scientific Reports, 2015
AbstractStudies have proven that IL-2 and IL-15 showed contrasting roles during CIK cells preparation. By employing microarray, we analyzed miRNA expression profiles of PBMC, CIKIL-2 and CIKIL-15. Advanced bioinformatic analyses were performed to explore the key miRNAs which may regulate cell proliferation and anti-tumor activity of CIK.

Killers at the crossroads: The use of innate immune cells in adoptive cellular therapy of cancer

Stem Cells Translational Medicine, 2020
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) is an approach to cancer treatment that involves the use of antitumor immune cells to target residual disease in patients after completion of chemo/radiotherapy.

Cell-based Immunotherapy for Colorectal Cancer with Cytokine-induced Killer Cells [PDF]

Immune Network, 2016
Colorectal cancer is the third leading cancer worldwide. Although incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer are gradually decreasing in the US, patients with metastatic colorectal cancer have poor prognosis with an estimated 5-year survival rate of less than 10%.

CD4+ T cells are required to improve the efficacy of CIK therapy in non-small cell lung cancer

Cell Death and Disease, 2022
Herein, Liu and colleagues show that CD4+ T cells in cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are required to enhance the clinical efficacy of CIK therapy. In addition, CD4+ T cells help via IL-17A production is critical to restoring the function of CD8+/CD3 ...

Stress-induced in vivo recruitment of human cytotoxic natural killer cells favors subsets with distinct receptor profiles and associates with increased epinephrine levels [PDF]

, 2015
Acute stress drives a 'high-alert' response in the immune system. Psychoactive drugs induce distinct stress hormone profiles, offering a sought-after opportunity to dissect the in vivo immunological effects of acute stress in humans.

Presence of the Transmembrane Protein Neuropilin in Cytokine-induced Killer Cells

Anticancer Research, 2020
Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are a heterogenous population of immune cells showing promising applications in immunotherapeutic cancer treatment. Neuropilin (NRP) proteins have been proven to play an important role in cancer development and prognosis.

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

Experimental 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 ...
