Abstract excerpt
We have studied the effects of interleukin-4 (IL-4) on the expansion, proliferation, phenotype, and antitumor activity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) derived from human renal cell carcinoma. Cultures were obtained from three primary renal tumors and one group of tumor-invaded, regional lymph nodes. IL-4 induced a significant increase in lymphocyte expansion and proliferation, but the response was...
