Abstract

Novel cells and molecules involved in tumor immunity are disclosed.
The novel cells are regulatory T-cells having the phenotype CD3+.alpha..beta.-TcR+CD4-CD8-CD44-CD28-NK1.1-. The regulatory cells express Ly6A and osteopontin while non-regulatory cells do not.

Claims (11)

1. A use of an effective amount of (i) a regulatory T-cell having the phenotype CD3+.alpha..beta.-TcR+CD4-CD8-CD44-CD28-NK1.1-, or (ii) an agent that can induce or activate the regulatory T-cell to inhibit tumor cell growth or proliferation.
2. A use according to claim 1 wherein the agent that can induce or activate the regulatory T cell is selected from cytokines, antigens and antibodies that bind the regulatory cells.
3. A use according to claim 1 comprising an effective amount of an antibody that stimulates a regulatory T cell having the phenotype CD3+.alpha..beta.-TcR+CD4-CD8-CD44-CD28-NK1.1-.
4. A use according to claim 1 wherein the regulatory T cells are expanded or activated in vitro prior to their use by culturing the cells with IL-2 and IL-4.
5. A use according to claim 4 further comprising culturing the cells with one class I mismatched allogeneic lymphocytes.
6. A use according to claim 1 wherein the regulatory T cells are expanded or activated in vitro prior to their use by culturing the cells in the presence of an antigen.
7. A use according to any one of claims 1 to 6 to treat or prevent cancer.
8. A use of an effective amount of an Ly6A protein or a nucleic acid sequence encoding an Ly6A protein to inhibit tumor cell growth or proliferation.
9. A use according to claim 8 wherein the Ly6A protein is a soluble fusion protein.
10. A use of an effective amount of an osteopontin or a nucleic acid sequence encoding an Ly6A protein to inhibit tumor cell growth or proliferation.
11. A use according to claim 10 wherein the osteopontin is a soluble fusion protein.
