[0002] Natural killer (NK) cells are an important part of the human innate immune system and have excellent anti-cancer and anti-viral infection capabilities. Compared with T cell immunotherapy, NK cell-based immunotherapy has many advantages: NK cells can spontaneously detect and eliminate infected and malignant cells without the need for specific activation, do not cause graft-versus-host disease, and do not induce T cell-driven inflammatory cytokine storms. These characteristics of NK cells make them highly attractive in cell-based cancer immunotherapy. As a feasible and effective treatment method, NK cell immunotherapy has shown great promise in preclinical and early clinical studies.
[0003] The main sources of NK cells are umbilical cord blood and peripheral blood. Human NK cells account for 5%-25% of peripheral blood lymphocytes, and generally only 2%-5% in umbilical cord blood. For immunotherapy, efficient in vitro expansion of high-purity and high-efficiency umbilical cord blood NK cells is crucial.

[0058] Experimental example CD3 of NK cells - CD56 + Detection Flow cytometry was used to detect the surface markers of NK cells, including CD3 / CD16+CD56 / CD45 / CD4 / CD19 / CD8. - CD56 + It is a representative marker of NK cells and can directly reflect the proportion of NK cells. Therefore, we only focus on CD3 - CD56 + Quantity analysis.
[0059] The MNC cells before and after separation in step 2 of each scheme of Examples 1 to 3 were tested, and the CD3 -CD56 + With CD3 + The number of detection conditions is as follows Figure 1 shown.
[0060] The results show that CD3 in Example 2 and Example 3 - CD56 + The number of CD3 + The number of samples was reduced, and there was no obvious difference before and after separation in Example 1.
[0061] After 13 days of culture, the NK cells CD3 - CD56 + The number of tests was tested and the results Figure 2 Shown: CD3 corresponding to Examples 1-3 - CD56 + The proportion of NK cells in Example 1 was significantly different from that in other examples. This indicates that the separation and culture scheme provided by the present invention can reduce the number of CD3 + Quantity, increase CD3 - CD56 + The number is more conducive to the cultivation of umbilical cord blood NK cells.
[0062] Determination of NK cell cytotoxic activity The lactate dehydrogenase release method was used to determine the killing effect of NK cells on K562 tumor cells. Figure 3 The killing activity of NK cells after culture was measured. The killing activity of NK cells was evaluated by the effector-target ratio (NK:K562) corresponding to a killing rate of 50%.
[0063] As can be seen from the figure, the effector-target ratio corresponding to a killing rate of 50% in Example 1 is around 5:1, and the effector-target ratio corresponding to a killing rate of 50% in Example 2 and Example 3 is around 1:10, indicating that the NK cultured in the present invention has a strong killing ability.
[0064] NK cell proliferation Figure 4 The cell expansion results of umbilical cord blood NK cells cultured for 13 days. As can be seen from the figure, after 13 days of culture, the number of cells in Example 1 can reach 7.86*10 9 The number of cells corresponding to Example 2 and Example 3 can be increased to 2.59*10 10 pcs, 2.17*10 10 This indicates that the culture scheme provided by the present invention can obtain a large number of NK cells in a short time.
[0065] Referring to the culture method of Chinese patent CN116790499A, the same materials as in Example 1 were used for separation and culture. The culture time was the same as in Example 1. After 13 days of culture, the NK cell CD3 - CD56 + The quantity is tested and the test results are shown in Figure 5 The results showed that CD3 - CD56 + The number of NK cells is 71.84%, and the number of cells is only 5.17*10^9. The proportion of NK cells and the number of cells are significantly different from those in Example 1, indicating that the embodiments provided by the present invention can achieve better results.
[0066] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of the present invention. These improvements and modifications should also be regarded as the scope of protection of the present invention.
