## Abstract The purpose of this study was to investigate the role that tributyltin (TBT)βinduced decreases in ATP levels may play in TBTβinduced decreases in the tumor lysing (lytic) function of natural killer (NK) cells. NK cells are a subset of lymphocytes that act as an initial immune defense ag
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
