Living T9 Glioma Cells Expressing Membrane Macrophage Colony Stimulating Factor (mM-CSF) Produce Immediate Tumor Destruction by Polymorphonuclear Leukocytes and Macrophages via a Paraptosis-Induced Pathway that Promotes Systemic Immunity Against Intracranial T9 Gliomas

Cloned membrane macrophage colony stimulating factor (mM-CSF) transfected T9-C2 glioma cells never formed subcutaneous tumors when implanted into Fischer rats, while control T9 cells did. The T9-C2 cells were completely killed within one day through a mechanism that resembled paraptosis. Vacuolization of the T9-C2 cell's mitochondria and endoplasmic reticulum started within 4 hours after implantation. By 24 hours, the dead tumor cells were swollen and TUNEL positive. Bcl-2-transduced T9-C2 cells failed to form tumors in rats. Both T9 and T9-C2 cells produced cytokine-induced neutrophil chemoattractant (CINC), which recruited the granulocytes into the tumor injection sites where they interacted with the tumor cells. Freshly isolated macrophages killed the T9-C2 cells in vitro by a cell contact-dependent mechanism, independent of phagocytosis. Nude athymic rats treated with anti-asialo GM1 antibody formed T9-C2 tumors; whereas, rats treated with an NK-specific antibody failed to form tumors. Anti-polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs) and anti-macrophage antibody treated nude rats formed tumors in 80% of the animals, whereas, only 40% of the rats developed a tumor when a single antibody was used. This suggests that both PMNs and macrophages are involved in the killing of T9-C2 tumor cells. Immunocompetent rats that rejected the living T9-C2 cells were immune against the intracranial rechallenge with T9 cells. No vaccinating effect occurred if the T9-C2 cells were freeze-thawed, x-irradiated or mitomycin-C treated prior to injection. Optimal tumor immunization using mM-CSF transduced T9 cells requires viable tumor cells and occurred when a strong inflammatory response at the injection of the tumor cells was induced.
