## Abstract Immunoglobulin fractions containing antibodies to the EpsteinβBarr virus (EBV) were isolated from different sera and tested in the antibodyβdependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) assay. All cytotoxic activity resided in the IgG fraction. IgA antibodies were not cytotoxic in this assay a
Natural killer (NK) cell activity and antibody dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC) was measured in 62 untreated cervical carcinoma patients and 25 normal healthy women, using a short-term chromium release assay. A significant reduction in NK and ADCC activity was observed in disseminated dis
