## Abstract NZB/NZW F~1~ female mice received levamisole in an attempt to increase suppressor T cell function. Responses varied with dosage of drug and age of mice. When treatment with 25 ฮผg/gm doses (intermittent or daily) was begun at 12 weeks of age, nephritis was accelerated in spite of transie
Immune functions of liver natural killer T (NKT) cells induced by the synthetic ligand โฃ-galactosylceramide enhanced age-dependently; hepatic injury and multiorgan dysfunction syndrome (MODS) induced by ligand-activated NKT cells were also enhanced. This study investigated how aging affects liver in
