The method for in vitro culture of lymphocytes involves incubating lymphocytes and cells with a particular gene expressed in a particular cancer cell line or cells, which are deficient or lowered in expression of a class 1 antigen and the particular gene has already been expressed, to amplify mainly NK cells or non-MHC-bound or MHC-bound killer T cells and then to amplify killer T cells specific to an antigen to a cancer. The in vitro culture of the lymphocytes can produce a group of lymphocytes composed mainly of killer cells. The group of the lymphocytes so produced can be used for immune therapy effective even for patients with cancer in the terminal stage to whom conventional cancer treatment and cancer curing agents.

The invention provides cytokine induced killer (CIK) cell populations and methods of using CIK cells to treat cellular proliferative disorders. CIK cells generated in vitro include both bulk cultures and clones. Individual CIK cell clones display distinct but overlapping lytic specificities for tumor cells and endothelial cells in vitro. When injected in vivo, bulk CIK cell cultures selectively attack tumor tissue. CIK cells can be used to treat a variety of cellular proliferative disorders, including early and late stage cancers as well as hematopoietic cell and solid tissue tumors.

We have established and studied a colony of mice with a unique trait of host resistance to both ascites and solid cancers induced by transplantable cells. One dramatic manifestation of this trait is age-dependent spontaneous regression of advanced cancers. This powerful resistance segregates as a single-locus dominant trait, is independent of tumor burden and is effective against cell lines from multiple types of cancer. During spontaneous regression or immediately following exposure, cancer cells provoke a massive infiltration of host leukocytes which form aggregates and rosettes with tumor cells. The cytolytic destruction of cancer cells by innate leukocytes is rapid and specific without apparent damage to normal cells. The mice are healthy, cancer-free and have a normal life span. These observations suggest a previously unrecognized mechanism of immune surveillance that may have potential for therapy or prevention of cancer.
