The aim of our study was to examine in vivo and in vitro cytokines produced by Lewis ratderived R5-28 sarcoma cells. These cells produce rapidly growing tumours in approximately two weeks after subcutaneous inoculation. However, spontaneous tumour regression was noted in about 40% of animals. For an explanation of this phenomenon, we evaluated the profile of 19 cytokines during tumour growth and spontaneous regression by the use of "antibody array". To detect cytokines directly originated by the sarcoma, the R5-28 cells were cultivated in vitro and then both the supernatants and the cell lysates were analysed. Our experiments showed three cytokines (MCP-1, TIMP-1 and VEGF) to be produced by R5-28 cells in vitro. Moreover, in vivo, another three cytokines (TNF-alpha, beta-NGF and LIX) were detected both in blood sera and tumour lysates, probably produced by immune and stromal cells during tumour growth. Changes in their expression after spontaneous regression are discussed.
