Abstract excerpt
The effect of TNF-SAM2 on cytotoxic activity of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) was investigated. TIL were prepared from 11 human cancer patients. They were propagated by double in vitro stimulation with anti-CD3 monoclonal antibody and interleukin-2, and cultured for 3 weeks. The cytotoxic activity of TIL was tested with standard 4h 51Cr-release assays in the presence or the absence of TNF-SAM2. In the...
