## Abstract Natural killer (NK) activity of human peripheral blood lymphocytes (HPBL) was studied in 32 alcoholics and 15 control subjects in a 4‐h chromium release assay using K562 tumor target cells. The natural killer activity of human peripheral blood lymphocytes in alcoholics was significantly
## Abstract Non‐toxic concentrations of retinoic acid (RA) inhibited the spontaneous activity of human natural killer (NK) cells. RA also inhibited the activation of human NK cells by treatment with partially purified human leukocyte interferon (HulFNα) or with inducers of IFNα and IFNγ. Full expre
Twenty-two normal volunteers had approximately eight, 2-hr-long leukapheresis procedures over a 2-year period and their natural killer (NK) cell function was prospectively measured. The NK activity of the preprocedure peripheral blood (pre-PB) was found to correlate well with the NK activity of the
To evaluate the effects of continuous intraportal chemotherapy on tumor immunity of the liver, natural killer (NK) cell activity was estimated in the rat liver. In an in vitro study, NK-enriched mononuclear cells collected from rat liver were incubated with 5-fluorouracil (5-FU) alone and with a 5-f
