Natural killer (NK) cells and interferon (IFN)-gamma have been implicated in immune surveillance against tumor development. Here we show that tumor necrosis factor-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) plays a critical role in the NK cell-mediated and IFN-gamma-dependent tumor surveillance. Administration of neutralizing monoclonal antibody against TRAIL promoted tumor development in mice subcutaneously inoculated with a chemical carcinogen methylcholanthrene (MCA). This protective effect of TRAIL was at least partly mediated by NK cells and totally dependent on IFN-gamma. In the absence of TRAIL, NK cells, or IFN-gamma, TRAIL-sensitive sarcomas preferentially emerged in MCA-inoculated mice. Moreover, development of spontaneous tumors in p53(+/-) mice was also promoted by neutralization of TRAIL. These results indicated a substantial role of TRAIL as an effector molecule that eliminates developing tumors.
