## This investigation aimed to develop a biologically relevant murine model of colorectal liver metastases and determine if Kupffer cells (KC) and hepatic natural killer cells (hNKC) regulate tumor growth. The model involves the injection of murine colon adenocarcinoma 26 (MCA 26) tumor cells into t

## Abstract Since hepatocellular carcinomas (HCCs) develop from transformed hepatocytes, sometimes in a multicentrical manner, immunological deletion of such small intrahepatic regions should be an important strategy to prevent HCC development. The liver contains abundant innate cell lineages inclu
## Abstract Monoclonal antibody to the NK 1.1 antigen, found on the natural killer cells of a number of strains of mice, specifically suppresses NK cell function when given in vivo. Using this monoclonal antibody, we have examined the effects of specific suppression of natural killer (NK) cells in
## Abstract The ability of the JHM^3^ strain of mouse hepatitis virus (MHV) to induce natural killer (NK) cells was examined. Infection of C57BU6 (86) mice with this virus resulted in the augmentation of natural cytotoxicity against YAC‐I target cells in the absence of a detectable interferon respo
Pit cells are a unique population of cells in sinusoids and peripheral blood, which can be considered natural killer (NK) cells with large granular lymphocyte (LGL) morphology. The aim of this study was to investigate the use of the monoclonal antibody (MAb) 3.2.3 as a specific marker of rat pit cel
