Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of ITNK cell preparation technology, specifically a method for preparing ITNK cells using a fully automated cell preparation instrument. Background Technology
[0002] ITNK (Induced T-cell-derived NK cells) are a new type of immune cells that acquire the phenotype and function of NK cells through reprogramming T cells. They combine the high proliferative capacity of T cells with the rapid, antigen-independent killing characteristics of NK cells, and have broad application prospects in tumor immunotherapy.
[0003] However, traditional preparation processes require manual operation across multiple platforms and steps, resulting in low efficiency and long cycles. Furthermore, open-access operations increase the risk of contamination, making it difficult to meet the requirements for clinical-grade cell preparation. Moreover, there are significant differences between different operators and laboratories, leading to poor product consistency. Summary of the Invention

[0032] 1. This method for preparing ITNK cells using a fully automated cell preparation instrument efficiently isolates high-purity T cells from peripheral blood or umbilical cord blood. Precise temperature control and automated material control facilitate the targeted reprogramming induction of T cells into ITNK cells. The amplification stage utilizes suitable engineered feeder cells and cytokines to achieve effective ITNK cell proliferation and ensure their specific phenotype. The washing and concentration stage effectively removes various impurities from the preparation process, achieving target cell concentration. The quality control stage comprehensively monitors core cell indicators. The entire process eliminates the need for manual operation across multiple platforms, effectively reducing the risk of contamination, minimizing individual differences caused by manual operation, improving the standardization and safety of cell preparation, and ensuring that the prepared ITNK cells meet basic clinical application requirements. This method solves the problems of low efficiency and poor product consistency associated with traditional preparation methods.
[0033] 2. This method for preparing ITNK cells using a fully automated cell preparation instrument utilizes image recognition technology to accurately determine the real-time density of two cell types. This allows for the calculation of the actual co-culture ratio and comparison with the ideal ratio. Based on the deviation, the method automatically triggers the addition of feeder cells, precisely calculating the addition volume to ensure the co-culture ratio remains within the ideal range. This adapts to the dynamic ratio requirements during cell proliferation, avoiding cell proliferation limitations caused by ratio imbalances. Furthermore, the entire control process is automated, and related control data can be recorded and traced throughout the process. This further optimizes the ITNK cell amplification effect, enhances cell activity, and significantly improves batch consistency in ITNK cell preparation, making the amplification process more scientific and precise.
