## Abstract Results concerning a possible link between susceptibility to naturalβcellβmediated immune cytolysis and the multiβdrug resistance (MDR) phenotype are conflicting. We evaluated in human acute lymphocytic leukemia the relationship between acquired drug resistance and susceptibility to cyt

Several immunological in vitro tests were performed on peripheral blood mononuclear cells of patients with adenocarcinoma of the prostate, stages A, B, C, D. The cytotoxicity of effector natural killer cells towards K-562 targets decreased with increasing disease spread, while their percentage was n
The parameters commonly considered to define climate are the mean annual precipitation and mean annual potential evapotranspiration. In this study an attempt has been made to develop a relationship between average drought frequency and the evapotranspiration/precipitation ratio for the arid, semi-ar
Exposure to ultraviolet B (UV-B) light is recognized to induce suppression of certain immune responses, particularly delayed hypersensitivity. However, its effect on cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) activity, of major importance in the resistance to viruses and tumours, has not been assessed to the same
The role of clinical status and therapeutic intervention on natural cell-mediated cytotoxicity in breast cancer was ascertained by monitoring natural killer (NK) cell activity in peripheral blood samples. Patients with localized disease on chemotherapy showed significant reductions in NK activity co
