摘要:
The present invention provides a method for in-vitro culturing and expanding natural killer (NK) cells in a cell culture medium comprising a population of NK cells, the method comprising a) adding an effective concentration of interleukin-21 (IL-21) at the beginning of the culturing process to said medium, b) adding repeatedly an effective concentration of interleukin-2 (IL-2) and/or interleukin-15 (IL-15) to said medium, and c) adding repeatedly feeder cells or membrane particles thereof to said medium, wherein said feeder cells are B cell derived which are EBV immortalized; and wherein said expansion of NK cells in said cell culture medium is maintained for at least 3 weeks.
摘要:
The present invention provides an extracellular anti-linker/label epitope chimeric antigen receptor (anti-LLE CAR) comprising I) a linker/label epitope (LLE) binding domain, II) a transmembrane domain, and III) a signal transduction domain, wherein said extracellular LLE binding domain binds a target cell binding molecule (TCBM) comprising i) an antigen binding moiety (ABM), wherein said ABM binds specifically to an antigen expressed on a target cell, ii) a label moiety (LaM), wherein said LaM is a naturally occurring molecule in a subject or a derivative thereof, iii) a linker moiety (LiM) conjugating said ABM and said LaM, thereby forming a linker/label epitope (LLE), wherein said extracellular LLE binding domain binds said LLE with a higher preference than said naturally occurring molecule.

摘要:
The invention is directed to a method for the preparation of a cell population from a sample originating from bone marrow or blood, comprising the steps a) dividing the sample into a first fraction containing 50 to 99 % of the cells of the sample and a second fraction containing 50 to 1 % of the cells of the sample, b) labeling the cells of the first fraction with a first marker against TCR alpha/beta, c) labeling the cells of the second fraction with a second marker against CD45RA, d) removing the labeled cells from the first and second fraction and combining the remaining cells to a cell population. Furthermore, the invention is directed to a cell composition and the use of the cell composition
摘要:
The invention relates to a composition, comprising a cell population that can be obtained from bone marrow or from blood, wherein the cell population is depleted of cells that express TCR alpha/beta and cells that express CD19. Such a pharmaceutical composition makes the reconstitution of the immune defense of a person as part of a bone marrow transplant possible. By means of the invention, the time until the immune reconstitution is considerably shortened and the immune responses after treatment are considerably reduced, in particular the occurrence of GVHD. The survival rate of the patients is considerably increased.

The invention is directed to a method for enriching target cells from a sample of cells characterized by: a) contacting the sample with a cell aggregation agent and first magnetic particles having an iron content of 0.1 pg to 5000 pg, coupled to a first antigen recognizing moiety; and second magnetic particles having an iron content of 0.05 fg to 100 fg and coupled to a second antigen recognizing moiety to obtain mixture a) b) applying a first magnetic field gradient to the mixture a) thereby removing the cells bound to the first antigen recognizing moiety coupled to the first magnetic particles, to obtain a mixture b) and obtaining an agglomerate comprising the cells of mixture a) bound to the cell aggregation agent c) applying a second magnetic field gradient to the mixture b) thereby immobilizing the cells bound to the second antigen recognizing moiety coupled to the second magnetic particles d) recovering the immobilized cells from the second magnetic field gradient as target cells.
