Abstract

Adoptive cell therapy using dendritic cells (DCs) is a strategy to deliver tumor antigens in cancer immunotherapy. Co-delivery of antigens to DC with essential components like genes encoding cytokines, chemokines, and other molecules or stimulation with recombinant cytokines is a potential method for designing an effective tumor vaccine protocol. Here, we describe the stimulation of purified splenic- or bone marrow-derived DC with recombinant interleukin-15 (IL-15) in the presence of intact soluble antigen from metastatic lymphoma tumor cells in an experimental animal model.
