B71 is alone of the major costimulatory molecules both in human and rodents. Previous work indicated that B71 gene transfected EL4 lymphoma can induce antitumor immunity in vivo. This paper showed that inoculation of EL4B71+ plus IL2 could elicit an antitumor effects in vivo and in vitro. Immunization with EL4B71+ tumor cells or EL4B71+ tumor cells plus IL2 could significantly prolong the survival time of the EL4 tumorbearing mice and also delay the occurrence of the tumor node in vivo. A strong proliferation response and CTL activity as well as the increased IL2 and TNF production of the splenocyte from the immunized mice with EL4B71+ or EL4B71+ plus IL2 were seen in the in vitro TLMC system. These finding indicated that the costimulatory molecule is necessary for inducing an effective antitumor immunity and IL2 optimal production.展开更多
