Abstract excerpt
Successful generation of adherent lymphokine-activated killer (A-LAK) cells, highly-enriched in CD3-CD56+ antitumour effector cells, from the peripheral blood of ten patients with acute myelogenous leukaemia (AML) is described. The AML patients were either untreated or in remission. In vitro proliferation of A-LAK cells in patients with AML was generally poor, unless the cells were cocultured with irradiated...
