Zusammenfassung:Immune cells expressing IL-7, CCL19, or a combination thereof, and a composition containing the immune cells, which is useful for preventing or treating cancer or infectious diseases are disclosed. A method for preventing or treating cancer or infectious diseases, which include administering a therapeutically effective amount of single type of immune cells, specifically natural killer cells, is also disclosed. Complementary immune responses between the patient's endogenous T cells and injected natural killer cells exhibit multifaceted and synergistic therapeutic effects. Co-administration of T cells and the immune cells other than T cells, specifically natural killer cells, also significantly improves therapeutic effects by allowing these heterogeneous cell populations to act in a lesion-concentrated manner.
