PG - 487-92 LID - 10.1016/j.biopha.2010.01.004 [doi] AB - Dendritic cells (DCs) pulsed by tumor antigens have been widely used as tumor vaccines to specifically trigger the cytotoxicity of CD8+ T cells. But the tumor microenviroment with enriched immunosuppressants hampered DC maturation and co-stimulation. CD40/CD40L signaling, one of the most important co-stimulatory molecules is capable of effectively skewing the immune response by promoting DCs maturation and co-stimulation. To establish a novel specific immunotherapeutic approach for the use of DC vaccine in the treatment of B lymphoma, hu-SCID mice bearing B lymphoma were vaccinated by different combination of tumor antigen pulsed DC or imDC vaccines and immune-enhancing agencies such as agonist CD40mAb and T cells. The results of immature DCs combined with agonistic CD40mAb were encouraging with achievement of tumor regression and induction of antigen-specific immune responses. These findings demonstrated the potential utility of imDC-based tumor vaccination combining with agonistic CD40mAb in the treatment of malignant lymphoma. CI - 2010 Elsevier Masson SAS.
