Lin et al., Cytotherapy 2008
(Graft vs Host Disease) :
CsA was added to anti-CD3+/-IL-15 stimulated CB and APB mononuclear cells ( MNC ) for a 5-day incubation ... Target induced apoptosis of IL-15 activated CB ( P=0.043 ) but not APB ( P=0.144 ) NK cells was decreased by CsA
Qian et al., Blood 1997
:
We have also studied the effect of exogenous IL-15 stimulation on CB and adult peripheral blood (APB) MNCs in terms of NK and lymphokine activated killer ( LAK ) activities and cytokine induction
