For adoptively transferred lymphocytes to exert anti-tumor effects in vivo, they must traffic or initiate the migration of endogenous immune cells to the site of tumor. Using a rat model, we examined the trafficking of tumor-sensitized lymphocytes to an intracerebral glioma. By labeling the cells with (111)Indium oxine (In-111) prior to intravenous injection, we were able to quantify the relative number of lymphocytes that travelled to the tumor site. There was no difference in lymphocytic influx between the tumor-bearing and non-tumor-bearing cerebral hemispheres in 3-day rat glioma models. However, in 7-day models, significantly greater numbers of In-111-labeled lymphocytes resided in the tumor-bearing hemisphere at 12 h post-administration. This number increased more than two-fold by 24 h post-adoptive transfer. Using fluorescent-labeled lymphocytes and microscopy, we confirmed that the detection of radioactivity within the brain was truly due to tumor infiltrating In-111-labeled lymphocytes. Adoptively transferred cells were found in perivascular and peritumoral locations. These data demonstrate that tumor-sensitized lymphocytes traffic to an intracerebral target site where they can exert an effect, further supporting adoptive immunotherapy as a treatment for glioma.
