The effect of levamisole on natural killer (NK) and killer (K) cell activities and on interferon production was determined in both normal subjects and cancer patients. Levamisole had no effect on these cytolytic immune effector cells in vitro. It did not induce interferon production. Sequential determinations of NK cell activity and interferon plasma levels after single oral doses of levamisole failed to demonstrate an effect of levamisole on spontaneous cytotoxicity or interferon production.

Abstract

The effect of levamisole on natural killer (NK) and killer (K) cell activities and on interferon production was determined in both normal subjects and cancer patients. Levamisole had no effect on these cytolytic immune effector cells in vitro. It did not induce interferon production. Sequential determinations of NK cell activity and interferon plasma levels after single oral doses of levamisole failed to demonstrate an effect of levamisole on spontaneous cytotoxicity or interferon production.
