The frequency and distribution of B and T lymphocyte subsets have been determined in many body tissues and fluids by preparing cell suspensions and tissue sections from lymphoid and nonlymphoid organs. In humans these studies often concentrate on the blood or on one particular cell source for obviou

In rodents, liver natural killer (NK) cells have been shown to mediate higher cytotoxic activity against tumor cells than do peripheral blood (PB) NK cells. However, such differences between liver and PB NK cells have not been extensively investigated in humans. The phenotypical and functional prope
We used two-color and three-color flow cytometric analysis to study phenotypical activation and functional subsets of T and natural killer cells in the blood and liver tissue of patients with primary biliary cirrhosis, other chronic liver diseases and the blood of healthy subjects. The changes in bl
Lymphokine-activated killer activity and natural killer activity in hepatocellular carcinoma patients were d. Maximum lymphokine-activated killer activity was induced at 3 to 6 days of incubation, and lymphokine-activated killer activity tended to increase in a manner dose dependent of recombinant i
