Monoclonal α-Cot-NK92 cell lines have different killing potentials. (A, B) α-Cot-NK92 clones were established through single cell sorting using FACS in an expression level-dependent manner for CAR-Myc. Black triangles with a line indicate the expression level of CAR-Myc. The ability of α-Cot-NK92 clones to lyse AU565 cells was assessed using co-culture with α-HER2-Cot (A: 500 ng/mL) or ZEGFR-Cot (B: 50 ng/mL) for 4 h at E:T ratios of 5:1, 2:1, and 1:1. Ve: vehicle. (C, D) Comparison of cytolytic potency between low (L8) and medium (M2) CAR-expressing α-Cot-NK92 clones through co-culture with AU565, A549-Red-Fluc, or MDA-MB-231 cells in a dose-dependent manner of α-HER2-Cot (C: from a concentration of 500 to 62.5 ng/mL, upper panel) or ZEGFR-Cot (D: from a concentration of 12.5 to 1.56 ng/mL, lower panel). (E) Comparison of cytolytic potency between M2 clone and heterogeneous α-Cot-NK92 cells through co-culture with AU565, A549-Red-Fluc, or MDA-MB-231 cells with α-HER2-Cot (125 ng/mL) or ZEGFR-Cot (6.25 ng/mL). (F) Relative expression level (%) and mean fluorescence intensity (MFI) of HER2 and EGFR in breast cancer cells (AU565) and normal lung cells (WI-38). (G) Cytolytic activity of NK92, monoclonal α-Cot-NK92-L8, and α-Cot-NK92-M2 cells with ZEGFR-Cot or HER2-Cot against AU565 and WI-38 cells. CAR, chimeric antigen receptor; Cot, cotinine; NK, natural killer.
