Task: Intent Identification
Input (English): The authors previously described the complete regression of established neuroblastoma (NB) by the adoptive transfer of syngeneic interleukin-12 transduced dendritic cells (DC) from naive mice. However, some malignancies, like NB, abrogate DC immunostimulation. The authors hypothesize that IL-12 transduction of DC from NB-bearing mice will have the same antitumor properties.', 'A/J mice (n = 32) with established NB received peritumoral injection of 1 x 10(6) DC (DC, IL-12 DC, day 7 IL-12 DC or day 14 IL-12 DC) on day 7. Tumor growth, phenotype, and ability to induce NK and T cell activity were measured.', 'Vaccination with naive admIL-12 DC resulted in 100% tumor regression and prolonged survival. Transduced DC induced only partial responses in 75% (day 7) and 25% (day 14) of animals. No differences in phenotype or effector cell activation were noted between admIL-12DC in tumor-bearing or naive mice.
