Phenotype and function of natural killer cells in patients with bronchogenic carcinoma.

Cancer research - 15 Oct 1991

LeFever A V, Funahashi A

Abstract excerpt

Decreased peripheral blood natural killer (NK) cell lytic activity may be associated with tumor presence. We evaluated peripheral blood NK lytic activity in 38 patients with bronchogenic carcinoma and compared this to ten normal volunteers of comparable age. The patients with carcinoma had significantly (P less than 0.001) less NK activity (20 +/- 17 lytic units at 25% specific lysis)/10(6) peripheral blood...
