Macrophages constitute a major part of natural tumor defense by their capacity to destroy selectively a broad range of tumor types upon specific activation. In the last couple of years, these cells have also been implicated as effector cells in the destruction of tumors by photodynamic therapy. In t
## Abstract Previous studies have shown that macrophage cell lines retained the ability to phagocytize, to secrete lysosomal enzymes, and to function as effector cells in antibody‐dependent cellular cytotoxicity. In this paper, the cytolytic activity of murine macrophage cell lines against tumor ta
## Abstract Non‐tumorigenic and ‘spontaneously’ transformed tumorigenic paired cell lines derived from mouse, rat, or hamster embryonic tissues were examined for their susceptibility to killing by mouse peritoneal macrophages activated __in vivo__ by infection with __Mycobacterium bovis__, strain _
## Abstract The role of natural killer (NK) cells in controlling tumor growth was investigated using an NK‐susceptible (cl27v‐IC2) and an NK‐insusceptible (c127av) subline of the lymphoma L5178Y. Syngeneic DBA/2 mice inoculated intraperitoneally with c127v‐IC2 tumor cells survived significantly lon
