Various cytotoxic functions of blood lymphocytes were studied in 101 patients undergoing daily treatment with human interferon-a (IFN). Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and lectin-dependent cellular cytotoxicity were not altered to any major extent after 1 day or 1 week of lFN therapy. After

## Abstract To investigate the binding of interferon to human lymphoid cells, we purified human α interferon and radio‐labelled it with iodine −125. Binding at 4°C could be saturated and was inhibited by unlabelled interferon; it was specific for cells of human origin. Dissociation constants for th
## Abstract Our interest in studying interferon (IFN) receptor activity in peripheral blood cells (PBCs) from patients with chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML) receiving therapeutic doses of partially purified leukocyte IFN (IFNα) stems from a need for more adequate monitoring of IFN therapy. The bi
## Abstract The effect of interferon (IF) injected intraperitoneally on the peripheral white blood‐cell (WBC) count in mice was studied. Mouse serum or brain IF produced in vivo in different mouse strains by injecting various viral inducers depressed the lymphocyte count from 3 to 24 h after the in
