Application of immunotherapy based on dendritic cells stimulated by tumor cell-derived exosomes in a syngeneic breast tumor mouse model.

ABSTRACT: We here evaluated the therapeutic effect of tumor cell-derived exosomes (TEXs)-stimulated dendritic cells (DCs) in a syngeneic orthotopic breast tumor model. The DC line DC2.4 and breast cancer cell line E0771 originally isolated from C57BL/6 mice were used. E0771 cells stably expressing the exosomal CD63-RFP or luciferase (Luc) and DC2.4 cells stably expressing GFP were produced using lentivirus. TEXs were purified from conditioned medium of E0771/CD63-RFP cells. Breast tumor model was established by injecting E0771/Luc cells into mammary gland fat pad of mice. TEXs contained immune modulatory molecules such as HSP70, HSP90, MHC I, MHC II, TGF-β, and PD-L1. TEXs were easily taken by DC2.4 cells, resulting in a significant increase in the in vitro proliferation and migration abiliti
