Abstract excerpt
Serotonin (10(-4) - 10(-7) M) augmented natural killer cell cytotoxicity (NKCC) of human CD16+/non-T lymphocytes in vitro against the NK-sensitive target cells K 562 erythroleukemic, Molt-4 lymphoma, Chang liver cells, and against EBV-transformed Daudi B-lymphoblastoid target cells by a mechanism of action involving a prostaglandin-and IL-1-independent accessory function of monocytes.
