This study investigates the cytotoxic effects of NKL cells on HepG2 hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) cells treated with 200 pg/ml of IFN-α for 6 hours. Following treatment, NKL cells were assessed for their cytotoxic potential against IFN-α-pretreated HepG2 cells. Results indicate significant differences in cytotoxicity between NKL-IFNα and NKL-vec cells, highlighting the enhanced effectiveness of the former. Additionally, the expression levels of HLA-ABC on HepG2 cells post co-culture with NKL cells were evaluated, providing insights into immune response modulation in HCC.

HepG2/NKL-vec HepG2/NKL-IFN HLA-ABC Fig S2.Expression of HLA-ABC on HepG2 cells. HepG2 cells were co-cultured with NKL-IFNor NKL-vec cells by transwell method. After 24 h, the expression levels of HLA-ABC in HepG2 cells were determined by FACS.One representative of at least three independent experiments.
