Objective The whole process of vaccine preparation is time-consuming and technically challenging. Here the hGM-CSF-engineered K-562 cell line was constructed to simplify tumor vaccine preparation process. Methods The eukaryocyte expressing plasmid pcDNA3.1/GM-CSF was first constructed and its accuracy was verified through sequencing. The pcDNA3.1/GM-CSF was transfected into COS-7 cells to verify GM-CSF expression and cytokine activity using TF-1 cell line. Then the plasmid was transfected into K-562 cell line using liposome method, and was selected under G-418 and sub-cloned by limiting dilution. GM-CSF product from the monoclone GM-CSF-K-562 cell lines was quantified using ELISA method. Results We successfully constructed the hGM-CSF eukaryocyte expressing plasmid and hGM-CSF expressing K-562 cell line. Conclusion The construction of K-562/GM-CSF line will simplify the preparation of tumor vaccine, thus facilitating the application of tumor vaccination therapy in clinical application.
