Abstract
Background: Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are ex-vivo expanded T cells which present a phenotype of both T and Natural Killer cell properties.
Objective: To compare the proliferation and functional properties of human CIK cells cultured in three cell culture plasticwares.
Methods: The number and viability of CIK cells were monitored. The expression of surface markers (CD3 and CD56), TH1 cytokines (IFN-γ and TNF-α), and cytolytic granules (granzyme B and perforin) were determined by flow cytometry.
Results: The number of CIK cells cultured in a static bag was highest compared to those in a petri dish and gas-permeable flask. However, CIK cells cultured in all plasticwares similarity expressed surface marker, TH1 cytokines, and cytolytic granules.
Conclusions: Considering safety, efficacy, and cost, a static bag is the best plasticware for culturing CIK cells.

The Asian Pacific Journal of Allergy and Immunology (APJAI) is an online open access journal with the recent impact factor (2018) 1.747
APJAI published 4 times per annum (March, June, September, December). Four issues constitute one volume.
APJAI publishes original research articles of basic science, clinical science and reviews on various aspects of allergy and immunology. This journal is an official journal of and published by the Allergy, Asthma and Immunology Association, Thailand.
The scopes include mechanism, pathogenesis, host-pathogen interaction, host-environment interaction, allergic diseases, immune-mediated diseases, epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment and prevention, immunotherapy, and vaccine. All papers are published in English and are refereed to international standards.
