Adoptive cell transfer

from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The adoptive cell transfer refers to the transfer of cells into an organism .

properties

Adoptive T cell transfer

By treating cells ex vivo with a vector , immunogen, or drug , effects can be achieved that are not always achieved in vivo . For example, an active ingredient used for treatment can be broken down or excreted prematurely in the organism (e.g. by the liver ) or the active ingredient only develops toxicity in the body . Cell transfer consists of the removal of cells (whether autologous or non-autologous), their treatment ex vivo and their transfer, usually by injection or infusion , into an organism. Through the transfer or, in the case of autologous cells, through the return transfer, the organism receives cells with new functions, which is where the term adoptive comes from.

In immunology , mostly autologous immune cells ( PBMC , mainly T-lymphocytes , cytokine-induced killer cells and dendritic cells ) are isolated by density gradient centrifugation and then treated in cell culture . Sometimes there is a cell depletion of undesired cell types. In the case of vaccines , this treatment of the cells can be stimulating (e.g. with interleukin-2 , GM-CSF , IL-12 , IL-21 ) or tolerogenic in the case of hyposensitization (e.g. with anti- CD3 receptor antibodies such as Muromonab-CD3 , otelixizumab , Teplizumab and visilizumab ).

Applications

The adoptive cell transfer is used, among other things, in gene therapy , in stem cell therapy or in immunotherapy . Sipuleucel-T is an approved adoptive cell transfer.

In the context of cancer immunotherapy , immune cells are sensitized ex vivo against tumor cells . In a clinical study with an adoptive cell transfer of transgenic T cells, a remission rate of 88% was achieved in patients with B cell lymphomas .

Inoculation with tumor antigen-loaded dendritic cells is also the subject of current research and clinical studies. In this case, autologous dendritic cells are loaded ex vivo with antigens which either come directly from the patient's individual tumor or which are used for standardized treatment (MelanA, survivin). The loading of the dendritic cells can take place inter alia by means of RNA transfection, DNA transfer or incubation with tumor lysate. Furthermore, tumor cells are transfected with genes of cytokines which, after injection, preferentially bind to other tumor cells of the same type and there cause or intensify the immune reaction via the cytokine secreted by them .

Another method that can be counted as adoptive cell transfer and is in the experimental stage with animals was presented for the first time in 2015. Immune system cells of the affected animal were placed on a silicon grid with an extremely fine structure. These cells were activated in vitro (outside the organism) with attenuated pathogens. The grid was then implanted on the animal and could remain there for a few months. The method has not yet been tested on humans.
