[Abstract] Antigen-specific T cell-derived induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) have been shown to re-differentiate into functional T cells and thus provide a potential source of T cells that could be useful for cancer immunotherapy. Human Vα24+ invariant natural killer T (Vα24+iNKT) cells are subset of T cells that are characterized by the expression of an invariant Vα24-Jα18 paired with Vβ11, that recognize glycolipids, such as α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer), presented by the MHC class I-like molecule CD1d. Vα24+iNKT cells capable of producing IFN-γ are reported to augment anti-tumor responses, which affects both NK cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T lymphocytes to eliminate MHC- and MHC+ tumor cells, respectively. Here we describe a ...
[摘要] 抗原特异性T细胞来源的诱导多能干细胞（iPSCs）已显示重新分化为功能性T细胞，从而提供可用于癌症免疫治疗的T细胞的潜在来源。不变性自然杀伤T（Vα24 + iNKT）细胞的人Vα24 + 细胞是T细胞的子集，其特征在于与Vβ11配对的不变Vα24-Jα18的表达，其识别糖脂，如α-半乳糖神经酰胺（α-GalCer），由MHC I类分子CD1d呈递。据报道能够产生IFN-γ的Vα24 + i / KT细胞增加抗肿瘤反应，其影响NK细胞和CD8 +细胞毒性T淋巴细胞以消除MHC - 和MHC + 肿瘤细胞。在这里，我们描述了将人Vα24 + iNKT细胞重编程到iPSC中的鲁棒方案，然后将其重新分化为Vα24 + iNKT细胞（iPS-Vα24功能的iNKT）。我们进一步提供了测定iPS-Vα24 + iNKT细胞活性的方案。背景 以前有报道说，针对晚期非小细胞肺癌（NSCLC）和头颈部癌症的Vα24 + iNKT细胞癌免疫治疗的临床试验显示疗效，耐受性良好（Motohashi et al。等人，2009; Yamasaki等人，2011）。然而，已知来自外周血单核细胞（PBMC）的Vα24 ...

[Abstract] Natural killer T (NKT) cells comprise an important immunoregulatory T cell subset and express cell surface proteins characteristic of both natural killer cells and T cells. Invariant NKT (iNKT) cells are activated by lipid antigen presented in the context of CD1d molecules, in contrast to classic T cell subsets which recognize peptide antigens presented by MHC molecules. Following activation, iNKT cells rapidly secrete large amounts of cytokines and can lyse tumor cells and virally infected cells; however, iNKT cells are reduced in patients with autoimmune disease and cancer. The potential to characterize and investigate the prospective use of iNKT cells for therapeutic purposes has significantly increased with the ability to stimulate and expand human iNKT cells. In this protocol, we ...
[摘要] 自然杀伤T（NKT）细胞包含重要的免疫调节T细胞亚群，并表达天然杀伤细胞和T细胞特有的细胞表面蛋白。与识别由MHC分子呈递的肽抗原的经典T细胞亚群形成对比，不变NKT（iNKT）细胞被在CD1d分子的环境中存在的脂质抗原活化。激活后，iNKT细胞快速分泌大量细胞因子，并且可以裂解肿瘤细胞和病毒感染的细胞;然而，iNKT细胞在患有自身免疫性疾病和癌症的患者中减少。表征和研究iNKT细胞用于治疗目的的前瞻性用途的潜力随着刺激和扩增人iNKT细胞的能力而显着增加。在这个协议，我们描述一种生成和传播原代人类iNKT细胞的方法。具体地，从人外周血单核细胞（PBMC）分离初级iNKT细胞，然后在人IL-2存在下用照射的α-GalCer负载的自体未成熟树突细胞（DC）定期扩增。
