Iron is an essential growth factor for procaryotes as well as for eucaryotes. Microorganisms have developed specific iron-uptake systems by producing low-molecular weight iron-chelating compounds (siderophores). We have examined the effect of the siderophores desferrioxamine (DFO), desferrichrome (D
Tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TIL) and tumor-associated macrophages (TAM) were recovered from 22 patients with primary lung cancer. The TIL did not exhibit any cytolytic activity against various target cells. The average percentage of TIL recovered was 6.7 f 1.3% in patients without recurrence, as
Mast cells and their potent chemical mediators are known to initiate and modulate a number of important inflammatory cascades. With respect to the central nervous system, the role of mast cells as participants in the promotion and resolution of inflammation has been widely underestimated. Mast cell-
