Augmentation of mouse natural killer activity and induction of interferon by tumor cells in vivo
Conventional and nude mice inoculated with syngeneic or allogenic tumor cells developed a rapid rise in serum interferon (IF) levels, peaking within 24 h. Within the same period, natural killer (NK) activity was readily boosted in the spleen. Both activities usually declined at 3 d. Cells that lacked the ability to augment NK activity also failed to induce detectable levels of IF. The boosting ...
متن کاملAugmentation of natural killer cell activity after arterial embolization of renal carcinomas.
Preoperative embolization of the renal artery has been reported to improve the survival of patients with advanced renal carcinomas compared to operative treatment only. To investigate possible immunological consequences of tumor embolization, natural killer (NK) cell activity in peripheral blood was investigated immediately before and at different time intervals after occlusion of the renal art...
متن کاملNatural killer T cell recognition of lipid antigens
Natural killer T cells recognize lipid antigens in the context of CD1 molecules. Recent publications show that this mode of recognition differs substantially from that of classic T-cell receptor peptide-major histocompatibility complex interaction.
متن کاملAugmentation of murine natural killer cell activity by swainsonine, a new antimetastatic immunomodulator.
Swainsonine, an indolizidine alkaloid, has been found to inhibit the experimental metastasis of B16-F10 melanoma cells when administered systemically to syngeneic C57BL/6 mice. The inhibition was both potent and dose dependent with greater than or equal to 80% reduction in pulmonary colonization being observed after only 24-h exposure to 3 micrograms/ml of swainsonine in drinking water. In cont...
متن کاملAugmentation of Human Natural Killer Cell Activity by Cyclophosphamide in Vitro1
Cyclophosphamide (CY) has been shown to modulate a num ber of immune responses. In the present study, we have exam ined the effect of CY on human natural killer (NK) cells in vitro. Lymphocytes from six normal volunteers were cultured alone or with CY in the medium containing human AB plasma, and their cytotoxicity was assessed against cells of K562. The results demonstrated that lymphocytes wh...
