| Research Abstract |
It is generally accepted that the difficulty in obtaining a sufficient number of functional dendritic cells (DCs) is a serious problem in DC-based immunotherapy. We used the induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cell-derived DCs (iPSDCs). In this study, we examined the capacity of iPSDCs compared with that of bone marrow-derived DCs (BMDCs). We adenovirally transduced the hgp100 gene into DCs and immunized mice once with the genetically modified DCs. The cytotoxic activity of CD8 (+) cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) and the therapeutic efficacy of the vaccination were assayed. Our results showed that hgp100-specific CTLs exhibited as high a level of cytotoxicity as BMDCs. Moreover, vaccination with the genetically modified iPSDCs achieved as high a level of therapeutic efficacy as vaccination with BMDCs. This study clarified experimentally that iPSDCs have an equal capacity to BMDCs. This vaccination strategy may therefore be useful for future clinical application as a cancer vaccine.
