Natural suppressor (NS) cells, which are Thy-1-, immunoglobulin-, and nonadherent cells with relatively low density (1.063 to 1.075 g/ml), inhibit not only the proliferation of spleen cells which have been stimulated by allogeneic cells or mitogens but also the proliferation of tumor cell lines. Cell-to-cell contact is not necessary for NS cells to exert NS activity. Being radioresistant, DNA synthesis is not necessary for NS cells to suppress proliferation. However, protein synthesis is necessary, since puromycin blocks NS cell activity. In addition, NS cells were found to secrete a factor which inhibits DNA synthesis. Of the various cytokines tested, interleukin 3 and granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor enhance NS activity. These results suggest that NS cells play an important role in the suppression of not only immune responses but also tumor growth.

D007371 Interferon-gamma The major interferon produced by mitogenically or antigenically stimulated LYMPHOCYTES. It is structurally different from TYPE I INTERFERON and its major activity is immunoregulation. It has been implicated in the expression of CLASS II HISTOCOMPATIBILITY ANTIGENS in cells that do not normally produce them, leading to AUTOIMMUNE DISEASES.
