METHODS: The B7 gene was transfected into the hepatocarcinoma cell Smmc7721 by liposma. Polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and reverse transcriptase-PCR (RT-PCR) were applied to test the result. MTT colorimetric assay was used to value the killing effect of lymphokine activated killer cells (LAK) activated by IL-2 on the transfected cell line and the original line. RESULT: B7^+ Smmc7721 was improved to be steadily expressed B7 molecule and LAK cells could more effectively act on the B7^+ Smmc7721 cells. CONCLUSION: The B7 gene can be transfected to hepatocarcinoma cells and can be expressed steadily in vitro, thus increasing the efficiency of LAK cells activated by IL-2 on them.展开更多
