β¦ Synopsis
The aim of this study was to construct bispecifc F(ab')l [antLCD3 X anti-BCL, idiotype (Id)] Abs (BsAbr) which would enable Iymphokine-activated killer (IAK) T cells to kill Id+ mouse BCL, lymphoma cells, and to determine the mechanism(s) underlying cell death. Using 4-day activated LAK T cells from either perforin-knockout mice or FasL-deficient gld mice, we show that the Fas pathway, but not perforin, is required for BsAb-mediated LAK T-cell-induced killing of BCL, cells.

## Abstract Here we characterize the antitumor activity of a recombinant bispecific singleβchain antibody isolated from the serum of cloned transgenic cows. The antibody, termed r28M, is directed to a melanomaβassociated proteoglycan, also expressed on glioblastoma cells, and to human CD28. Bound t
We have investigated the effect of pre-treatment with the anti-cancer drugs cisplatin and etoposide on the susceptibility of P815 murine mastocytoma cells to lysis by murine spleen-derived anti-CD3-activated killer-T (AK-T) cells. A 20 hr pre-treatment with cisplatin (0.2-2 microg/ml) or etoposide (
