Influence of human interferon-alpha therapy on cytotoxic functions of blood lymphocytes. Studies on lectin-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity, and natural killer cell activity.

S Einhorn, H Blomgren, H Strander, J Wasserman.   

Abstract

Various cytotoxic functions of blood lymphocytes were studied in 101 patients undergoing daily treatment with human interferon-alpha (IFN). Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity and lectin-dependent cellular cytotoxicity were not altered to any major extent after 1 day or 1 week of IFN therapy. After 3 and 6 months of treatment a decrease in these functions was observed in most patients. Natural killer cell activity increased following the first injection of IFN and remained elevated during 1 year of IFN therapy.
