Glioblastoma cells release factors (G-TsF) which inhibit T-cell proliferation. The G-TsF is a novel member of the transforming growth factor beta family and is identical to TGF beta 2. The effect of G-TsF and TGF beta 2 on the induction of LAK cell activity was investigated by culturing PBL obtained
The in vitro effect of lentinan in inducing activation of killer cells and cytotoxic macrophages has been examined. Human peripheral blood mononuclear cells were cultured with lentinan for 2, 4 and 8 days. After 4 days cytotoxicity was increased 4% by lentinan less than 1,000 ng/ml. After 8 days, it
