Antitumor effects of exosomes derived from a mouse hepatoma carcinoma cell line H22
Objective To investigate the induction of antitumor response and its immune mechanism of H
22
cell-derived exosomes. Methods Fifteen BALB/c mice were immunized by H
22
cell-derived exosomes three times at weekly intervals
then inoculated with the wild-type H
22
. Another 15 BALB/c mice that were injected with PBS were used as controls. In the 80-day observation period
the tumor growth and survival time were observed. MTT was used to determine lymphocyte proliferation and specific cytotoxicity of mice splenic cells. Immunohistochemical staining of CD4
+
and CD8
+
was performed for lymphocyte infiltr
ation in tumor tissues. Results Immunization with exosomes derived from H
22
delayed the tumor growth and promoted the survival rate of the mice bearing the tumor
and also induced lymphocyte proliferation and triggered strong specific cytotoxic response of spleen lymphocytes and activated CD4
+
and CD8
+
T cells. Conclusion Vaccination of H
22
cell-derived exosomes is effective in inducing the protective immunity. Furthermore
