【Abstract】Objective To explore the effect against gastric cancer induced by Newcastle disease virus modified autologous tumor vaccine （NDV-ATV）pulsed dendritic cells(DCs). Methods The Newcastle disease virus infected the gastric cancer lines (MNK45) and was lost its activity. Peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) were cultured under condition of recombinant human granulocyte macrophage-colony stimulating factor (1 000 u/ml)+IL-4(1 000 u/ml) + TNF-α(100 ng/ml). The tumor antigen specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) was generated from activated autologous T cell by the Newcastle disease virus infected the MNK45 pulsed DC. And Cyto Tox 96TM in vitro assayed the cytotoxicity of CTL to MNK45. Thawed gastric cancer cell antigen were used as control in these experiments. Results The killing rate of MNK45 by antigen specific CTL reached (90.15±9.82)%, which was nearly twice as high as that of control(60.57±5.74)%. The CTL had much higher cytotoxicity to different differentiated type of gastric cancer cells such as MGC803〔(52.23±6.45)% 〕 and SGC7901〔 (61.75±8.84)%〕, as compared with LOVO〔(9.11±3.42)%〕 and HepG2 〔 (8.30±3.12)%〕tumor cells(P＜0.05). Conclusion Efficient and specific of against gastric cancer immunoreaction can be induced in virtue of NDV-ATV pulsed DCs, NDV-ATV loaded DCs might provide a new kind of theraputic means for gastric cancer.
