Abstract
Peritoneal exudate cells from mice after intraperitoneal injection of 10 mg. of BCG demonstrated cytolytic activity in vitro against the syngeneic bladder tumor cell line MBT-2. The cytolytic effector cells are nonadherent, nonphagocytic and trypsin resistant. Moreover these cells are cyclophosphamide and hydrocortisone sensitive. It is suggested that an NK-like cell constitutes the major, if not all the population of effector cells in this reaction.Entities:
