| Research Abstract |
Various immunotherapy against malignant tumors by using antigen presenting cells, such as monocytes-derived dendritic cells, had been examined. The present study was designed to analyze the mechanism of intercellular molecular transfer of OX40 between T lymphocytes and antigen presenting cells in order to improve the clinical efficacy of the immunotherapies. OX40/OX40L interaction was known to provide an important regulatory mechanism in both T cell-vascular endothelial cell adhesion and antigen-specific immune reactions. In this study, we showed that OX40, originally expressed on activated CD4^+ T cells, can be transferred to the cell surface of OX40L-expressing cells. In addition, we found that not only a 50 kDa authentic OX40 (p50) but also a 35 kDa OX40-related glycoprotein (p35 OX40rgp), which had altered glycosilations, were expressed on the surface of primary activated CD4^+ T cells and OX40-expressing cell lines. Intercellular transfer analysis showed that OX40L-dependent intercellular OX40-transfer occurs under physiological conditions, and that the transfer is possibly mediated by two istinct manners. We also analyzed the interaction between T lymphocytes and monocyte-derived dendritic cells obtained from malignant tumor patients who had autologous tumor lysate-pulsed dendritic cells therapy. Cancer patients were revealed to possess the subpopulation of monocyte-derived dendritic cell with impaired cell survival, cytokine production and antigen-presentation. These findings might provide information of the difficulties of immunotherapy for cancer patients.
