Abstract excerpt
In this study we addressed the question of whether lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells, besides killing neoplastic cells, may exert a certain degree of lysis on the normal counterpart; in particular we took into consideration the toxicity against pulmonary alveolar macrophages (PAM). We demon...
