Induction of sensitivity to NK-mediated cytotoxicity by TNF-α treatment: possible role of ICAM-3 and CD44

Treatment of the P815 murine mastocytoma

Treatment of the P815 murine mastocytoma with cisplatin or etoposide up-regulates cell-surface Fas (CD95) expression and increases sensitivity to anti-Fas antibody-mediated cytotoxicity and to lysis by anti-CD3-activated killer-T cells

We have investigated the effect of pre-treatment with the anti-cancer drugs cisplatin and etoposide on the susceptibility of P815 murine mastocytoma cells to lysis by murine spleen-derived anti-CD3-activated killer-T (AK-T) cells. A 20 hr pre-treatment with cisplatin (0.2-2 microg/ml) or etoposide (
