The Therapeutic Effect of Cytokine-Induced Killer Cells on Pancreatic Cancer Enhanced by Dendritic Cells Pulsed with K-Ras Mutant Peptide

Figure 5

The production of IL-12 and IFN-γ of CIK cultured with K-ras antigen-pulsed DC (experiment 2.4). In the supernatant of group K-ras-DCCIK cultured for 14 days, IFN-γ and IL-12 levels were highest, K-ras-DCCIK versus DCCIK and CIK ( ). And levels in group DCCIK were also higher than those of CIK ( ). It is demonstrated that after coculture of CIKs and k-ras-DCs, IFN-γ and IL-12 levels in the cell supernatants can be apparently increased.
