Abstract:Acute lymphoid (ALL) and myeloid leukemia (AML) are known to be invasive and highly lethal hematological malignancies. Because current treatments are insufficient and have a variety of side effects, researchers are looking for new and more effective therapeutic methods. Interestingly, ongoing efforts to find the best approach to optimize NK cell anti-leukemia potential shed light on the successful treatment of cancer. Mature KIR+NK cells ability to remove HLA Class-I deficient cells has been exploited in cancer immunotherapy. Here, we generated KIR+NK cells from cord blood stem cells using IL-2 and IL-15 cytokines. Our finding underlined the importance of KIR expression in the cytotoxic function of NK cells. Taken together, this study presented an effective in vitro method for the expansion and differentiation of KIR+NK cells using cytokines without any feeder cells. Furthermore, the presented culture condition could be useful for the generation of mature and pure NK cells from limited numbers of CD34+ cord blood cells and might be used as a novel method to improve the current state of cancer therapy.
