| Popis: | Background. The introduction of immunotherapy based on immune checkpoint inhibitors has significantly improve the effectiveness of kidney cancer treatment. Nevertheless, not all patients respond to such treatment and there are no reliable predictive markers. Therefore, the development of a model system for assessing the cellular immune response to a tumor seems to be an urgent task.Aim. Development of a model to assess the T-cell immune response was the focus of this study.Materials and methods. Primary tumor cell culture and peripheral blood T-cell fraction were obtained under standard sterile conditions. T-cell activation were perform via anti-CD3 and anti-CD28 antibodies. The cell index was assessed using the RTCA xCELLigence biosensor technology (ACEA Biosciences, USA).Results. Tumor and T-cells from the same patient were cultured together to assess the growth rate of the tumor cell population. Measurements were taken at 30-minute intervals. The duration of observation was 24 hours. It has been shown that non-activated T-cells do not affect the proliferative properties of cultured cancer cells. On the contrary, activated T-cells suppressed the proliferative properties of cancer cells, which was associated with an increase in the proportion of Т-cells carrying the HLA-DR receptor (CD3+HLA–DR+) because of activation. Tumor-specific T-cell activity can lead to three consequences: lack of effect, partial suppression of proliferative properties, and complete death of tumor cells. In the latter case, the absence of such cells was determined by flow cytometry.Conclusion. The developed approach makes it possible to evaluate the cytotoxic properties of T cells in relation to tumor cells in a particular patient. The advantage of this method is that the measurement can be carried out in the presence of immune checkpoint inhibitors. The proposed method may be useful for evaluating the treatment regimen within the framework of personalized therapy. |
