Enhanced natural but diminished antibody-mediated cytotoxicity in the lungs of MRLlpr/lpr mice

Human systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients, as well as MRLlpr/lpr mice which develop a SLE-like disease, have decreased numbers and functional activity of systemic natural killer (NK) cells. In contrast, it has been found that among lymphocytes recovered from the bronchoalveolar lavage fluid...
