In vitro cellular cytotoxicity of mononuclear cells of intestinal mucosa and peripheral blood for a colon cancer cell target was measured in patients with colon cancer and other disorders requiring resection. Four- and 24-hour cytotoxicity assays were conducted using selenium 75 (75Se)-labeled RPMI-4788 human colon cancer target cells grown in culture. In the cancer group mean cytotoxicity was 30.4% at 24 hours for peripheral blood effectors and 8.0% for effectors from normal mucosa. Values in patients with Crohn's disease were 10.4% for blood and 17.2% for effectors from normal mucosa, and 13.6% and 18.5%, respectively, for blood and abnormal mucosa. Values in patients with other diseases were 25% for blood and 14.7% for mucosa. Mean cytotoxicity at 4 hours did not exceed 6.4% for any group, and assays in autologous serum gave results similar to tests in calf serum. In additional studies, K 562 chronic leukemia cells were somewhat more sensitive to lysis than RPMI-4788 by blood mononuclear cells, but there was no lysis of K 562 by mucosal populations that were cytotoxic for RPMI-4788. There was no competitive inhibition by either target cell for the other. It was concluded that 75Se RPMI-4788 colon cancer cells are suitable targets for evaluating in vitro cytotoxicity by intestinal mucosal cells and that mucosal cytotoxicity in patients with colon cancer is depressed compared to cytotoxicity by peripheral blood effectors.
