Abstract Background: Human natural killer (NK) cells have attracted widespread attention as a potential adoptive cell therapy (ACT). However, the therapeutic effects of NK cell infusion in patients with solid tumors are limited. There is an urgent need to explore a suitable new treatment plan to overcome weaknesses and support the superior therapeutic activity of NK cells. Methods: In this study, the mechanisms underlying the susceptibility of gastric cancer (GC) cell lines AGS, HGC-27, and NCI-N87 to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity were explored. Results: Lactic dehydrogenase (LDH) release assays showed that all three GC cell lines were susceptible… More >
