Abstract
It was demonstrated that protein A induced the production of .gamma. interferon (IFN-.gamma.) in nonadherent, T lymphocyte-depleted (E-), Fc receptor-bearing (FcR+) human peripheral blood lympocytes. IFN-.gamma. is apparently a potent stimulator of natural killing and antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity activity.This publication has 15 references indexed in Scilit:
