METHOD FOR CULTURING CORD BLOOD-DERIVED NATURAL KILLER CELLS USING TRANSFORMED T-CELLS

摘要

The present invention pertains to a method for culturing cord blood-derived natural killer cells using transformed T-cells. The method for culturing natural killer cells using transformed T-cells according to the present invention can effectively propagate and produce natural killer cells from a small amount of raw cells. In addition, the method can also improve the cell-killing ability of natural killer cells. Thus, the method for culturing natural killer cells using transformed T-cells according to the present invention can be usefully used to commercialize cell therapeutic agents. Moreover, natural killer cells produced by the culturing method of the present invention can be usefully used as a cell therapeutic agent.
