Purification of natural killer-like Kurloff cells and arachidonic acid metabolism.

Pulmonary and splenic Kurloff cells have been purified from estrogen-treated guinea pig. Enzymatic digestion of lung tissue and mechanical dispersion of cells yielded about 650 x 10(6) viable cells. After centrifugal elutriation and centrifugation on continuous Percoll gradient, a population of high-density (1,100 g/ml) pulmonary Kurloff cells were obtained with high viability (approximately 99%) and purity (approximately 99%). Splenic Kurloff cells have been isolated by disruption of spleen tissue and centrifugation on continuous Percoll gradient. High-density splenic Kurloff cells (150 x 10(6) cells per spleen) were also obtained with high purity (approximately 99%) and viability (approximately 99%). Pulmonary and splenic Kurloff cells were incubated with various concentrations of arachidonic acid (10, 30 and 100 microM) in the absence or presence of 2 microM ionophore A23187. With 10 microM arachidonic acid the relative production of cyclooxygenase products was the following: TxB2 greater than PGE2 approximately PGI2. For an arachidonic acid concentration superior to 10 microM, the profile of release was PGE2 much greater than TxB2 greater than PGI2. Arachidonic acid metabolism through the 5-lipoxygenase pathway was also studied by incubating pulmonary or splenic Kurloff cells with 10 microM arachidonic acid in the absence or presence of 2 microM ionophore A23187, or in some experiments, with 2.5 microM leukotriene A4. Reverse phase HPLC profiles clearly indicated that high-density Kurloff cells did not express 5-lipoxygenase activity. However, these cells showed the ability to convert exogenous leukotriene A4 into leukotriene B4 suggesting the presence of LTA4 hydrolase activity. These data have been confirmed by a sensitive RIA method. This study constitutes the first report on the purification of pulmonary Kurloff cells and on arachidonic acid metabolism by these cells. The possible implications of Kurloff cells in various biological events are discussed.     

Isolation of Kurloff cells by Percoll density gradient centrifugation. Protein labeling with 35S-methionine of these cells

Large populations of splenic Kurloff (150 - 200 X 10(6) Kurloff cells) were obtained from estrogenized guinea pigs by isopycnic centrifugation in a Percoll solution of 1.085 g/ml starting density. The Kurloff cells settled at a buoyant density of about 1.100 g/ml. The purity of these cell suspensions reached 95%, as assessed by phase contrast microscopy and by specific staining. The viability assessed by Trypan blue exclusion test was also about 95%. Moreover, the good transmission electron microscopic appearance of these Kurloff cells and their ability to take up 35S-methionine in culture confirmed their physiological integrity. By autohistoradiography, this protein labeling was localized between the nucleus and the Kurloff body, and also on the Kurloff body itself. This data reinforces the hypothesis of de novo synthesis of the Kurloff body.     

Phagocytic inability of Kurloff cells in the lung and spleen of the guinea pig

Summary Adult female guinea pigs received subcutaneous implants of diethylstilbestrol-cholestrol pellets which produced splenomegaly and increased numbers of splenic Kurloff cells. Latex spheres subsequently injected intravenously were not phagocytized by Kurloff cells within the lungs and spleen as examined with the electron microscope. This is considered as evidence that Kurloff cells are probably not phagocytic. The origin of these cells is discussed.     

Kurloff cell proteoglycans. Evidence for de novo synthesis of chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans by purified Kurloff cells

This paper reports the first direct demonstration of de novo synthesis of chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans by Kurloff cells. This was achieved using highly purified splenic Kurloff cells labelled in vitro with [35S]sulphate and D-[U-3H]glucosamine. A single population of sulphated proteoglycans was observed after dissociative extraction, DEAE-cellulose chromatography, Sepharose CL 6B chromatography and fluorography after electrophoresis. These were large, highly anionic proteoglycans and were completely digested by chondroitinase AC or ABC. Moreover, glycosaminoglycan extracted from Kurloff cells had the electrophoretic mobility of control chondroitin sulphate.     

Murine T-cell hybridomas that produce lymphokine with macrophage-activating factor activity as a constitutive product

Responder spleen cells primed to alloantigens in vivo could generate high degree of cytotoxicity against low- or nonimmunogenic stimulators such as thymocytes or uv light-treated spleen cells in vitro. However, a removal of adherent cells from primed responder cells remarkably reduced the cytotoxicity after stimulation with such low-immunogenic stimulators. Adding a small number of peritoneal adherent cells (PACs) also suppressed the cytotoxic activity of unseparated responders against low-immunogenic stimulators. These suppressive effects by PACs were blocked by indomethacin. By adding prostaglandin E₂, cytotoxic T lymphocyte (CTL) generation of primed unseparated responders against low-immunogenic stimulators was suppressed; however, cytotoxic activity against mitomycin C-treated stimulators was not suppressed. These results suggested that prostaglandins released from PACs selectively inhibited the function of splenic adherent cells that were required for CTL generation of primed responder spleen cells against low-immunogenic stimulators in vitro.     

Antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity in the guinea pig: The role of the Kurloff cell

In the guinea pig, the killer cell in in vitro ADCC assays, is found to be the Fc receptor-bearing Kurloff cell. This killer Kurloff cell is under hormonal control, estrogen treatment significantly increasing the Kurloff cell numbers in blood, spleen, and thymus, and markedly augmenting the lytic capacity of these lymphoid compartments. The cytotoxic killer lymphocyte, if present, appears to be a minor effector cell in guinea pig ADCC. Selective lymphocyte subpopulation and Kurloff-cell depletion procedures reveal that the killer Kurloff cell may also possess a variety of other membrane markers (T⁺, C3⁺, Ig⁺). The particular membrane profile of a cytotoxic Kurloff cell is determined by its lymphoid site of residence and the hormonal status of the animal.     

The proteoglycan skeleton of the Kurloff body as evidenced by Cuprolinic Blue staining

Summary This study deals with the ultrastructure of the chondroitin sulphate proteoglycans of the Kurloff body, a large lysosome organelle, metachromatic towards Toluidine Blue, of a blood cell unique to the guinea pig and called the Kurloff cell. Splenic Kurloff cell from oestrogen-treated guinea pig cells were examined after staining with Cuprolinic Blue, a cationic phthalocyanine-like dye, in the presence of MgCl₂ in a critical electrolyte concentration method. Better results were obtained when the fixation-staining by the glutaraldehyde Cuprinolinic Blue MgCl₂ mixture was preceded by a glutaraldehyde pre-fixation. On light microscopy, Kurloff bodies generally exhibited an overall pink and glassy metachromasia, sometimes with additional darker metachromatic small dots at their peripheries. At the ultrastructural level, the metachromatic central matrix of the Kurloff body usually exhibited, as a major feature, a typical network pattern of ribbon-like or stellate electron-dense precipitates suggesting the presence of a skeleton of Cuprolinic Blue-reactive filamentous structures. Taking into account their high anionicity (as shown by the stability of the dye binding in the presence of 0.3 m MgCl₂) and their susceptibility to chondroitinase ABC, these anionic structures were assumed to be related to the proteochondroitin-4-sulphate previously characterized as the only major sulphated glycoconjugate of the Kurloff cell.     

Purification and characterization of Kurloff cell sialoglycoproteins with acid phosphatase activity

The majora2–6 sialoglycoproteins in detergent-extracts of Kurloff cells were purified by anion-exchange andSambucus nigra agglutinin-affinity chromatographies. The similar ultrastructural localisations of (1)S. nigra agglutinin-gold conjugates and (2) acid phosphatase activities on the Kurloff body and particularly on its myelin figures indicated that the majora2-6 sialoglycoproteins of the Kurloff cell had acid phosphatase activity. Two-dimensional electrophoresis showed that these tartrate-sensitive phosphatases corresponded to 2 acidic (pI 3.4–3.7) polypeptides of 36 and 34 kDa. Hydrolysis with peptide-N-glycosidases F gave a 33 kDa apoprotein rich in alanine, glutamic acid, tyrosine and lysin. A lectin-affinity study demonstrated that they contained hybrid type bisected and fucosylatedN-linked oligosaccharides. Cytotoxic properties were previously attributed to Kurloff cells and other studies suggested that not only acid phosphatases but alsoa2-6-linked sialic acid residues themselves may participate in natural killer activity.     

Early antigen elimination by cytotoxic T cells results in diminished cellular immune responses to allogeneic tumor

Previous reports have suggested that repeated alloantigenic challenge increases humoral responses to alloantigens, but may cause decreasing cellular responses. We stimulated BALB/c (H-2^d) mice with intraperitoneal EL-4 tumor (H-2^b) and serially assessed cytotoxic responses in spleen and peritoneal lymphocytes using ⁵¹Cr-labeled EL-4 target cells. We observed that cytotoxicity generated in the spleen of nonimmune BALB/c mice was much greater than that in immunized mice; similar peak responses were generated in peritoneal lymphocytes in normal and immunized hosts. Complement-mediated cytotoxicity was not necessary for diminished splenic responses in hyperimmune hosts, for the same phenomenon was seen in the Hzl anti-BL/6 system which is free of humoral responses. Irradiation (2000 rad) of the EL-4 tumor challenge prevented tumor cell proliferation and markedly reduced splenic responses in nonimmune mice. We suggest that cytotoxic cells suppressed further generation of cyto-toxicity; by effecting an early elimination of tumor inoculum, tumor proliferation was abrogated and dose of cellular antigen was, consequently, markedly reduced.     

Enhancement by interferon of natural killer cell activity in mice.

Injection of mice with several interferon inducers, Newcastle Disease virus, polyinosinic-polycytidylic acid and tilorone resulted in an increase in spleen cell cytotoxicity for ⁵¹chromium-labeled mouse YAC tumor target cells in 4-hr in vitro assays. This increase in spleen cell cytotoxicity was abrogated by injection of mice with potent anti-mouse interferon globulin. Inoculation of mice with mouse interferon (but not human leucocyte or mock interferon preparations) also resulted in a marked enhancement of spleen cell cytotoxicity. The extent of enhancement of spleen cell cytotoxicity was directly proportional to the amount of interferon injected and a significant increase was observed after inoculation of as little as 10³ to 10⁴ units of interferon. An effect could be detected as soon as 1 hr after injection of interferon. The increase of spleen cell cytotoxicity after inoculation of an interferon inducer was not due to a localization and accumulation of cytotoxic cells in the spleen but reflected a general increase in cytotoxic cell activity in various lymphoid tissues (except the thymus). The splenic cytotoxic cells from interferon or interferon-inducer-injected mice had the characteristics of natural killer (NK) cells since (i) interferon enhanced spleen cell cytotoxicity in athymic (nu/nu) nude mice, (ii) classical spleen cell fractionation procedures by nylon wool columns, anti-Thy 1.2 serum plus complement, anti-Ig columns, and depletion of FcR+ rosette-forming cells, failed to remove the effector cells generated in vivo or in vitro. Therefore like NK cells, interferon-induced cytotoxic cells lack the surface markers of mature T and B lymphocytes, are not adherent, and are devoid of avid Fc receptors. Furthermore like NK cells, the spleen cells from interferon-treated mice lysed various target cells (known for their sensitivity to NK cells) without H-2 or species restriction. Incubation in vitro of normal spleen cells with interferon also resulted in an increase in cytotoxicity for YAC tumor cells. We conclude that interferon acts directly on NK cells and enhances the inherent cytotoxic activity of these cells.     

Effector cells for antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity. I. Increased cytotoxicity after priming with BCG-SS.

Intraperitoneal injection of an aqueous extract of Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG-SS) is shown to increase the cytotoxicity of murine spleen cells which mediate antibody-dependent cellular Cytotoxicity (ADCC). Three to forty-four days after in vivo stimulation with BCG-SS, spleen cells were tested for their ability to lyse antibody-coated chicken red blood cells in a ⁵¹Cr release assay. Significantly increased lysis compared to non-BCG-SS primed litter mates was observed from 3 days through 3 weeks after priming. Aqueous extracts of other bacteria including Listcria, Brucella, Salmonella, Staphlococcus and Eschcrichia did not elicit the same cytotoxic response. Separation of BCG-SS stimulated spleen cells on columns of G-10 Sephadex showed increased cytotoxicity in both the adherent (presumptive macrophage and polymorph) and nonadherent (presumptive K lymphocyte) populations. The possible relationship of these results to BCG-mediated anti-tumor effects is discussed.     

Characterization of the non-sulphated highly anionic kurloff cell glycoconjugates by lectin- and immunoblotting: Evidence for the presence of α(2,8)-linked polysialic acid-bearing molecules

Summary— Urea or guanidine hydrochloride-soluble extracts from highly purified Kurloff cells (KC) radiolabelled in vitro were subjected to DEAE-cellulose chromatography. Among the three anionic peaks obtained, a major and non-sulphated peak (designated as peak IV) strongly affected by glucosamine-labelling and eluted at about 0.3 M NaCl was analyzed. Gel filtration on Sepharose CL4B and 10% SDS-PAGE indicated its heterogeneous size. Peak IV consisted mainly of N-glycans as shown by its susceptibility to tunicamycin. Further insight into its chemical nature was obtained by examining its binding capacity to different lectins and by immunodot analysis. It strongly interacted with concanavalin A (Con A) after dot-blot or Western blotting. A large amount of these glycoproteins is not of the high-mannose type since Galanthus nivalis agglutinin reacted weakly with peak IV. Moreover, bindings to Phaseolus vulgaris and to wheat germ agglutinins suggest the presence of bisecting N-acetylglucosamine residues. Bindings to Sambucus nigra and to Ricinus communis agglutinins, dramatically lessened and increased respectively after desialylation, suggest the presence of Neu5Acα2,6Gal/GalNAc sequences. The absence of outer sialic acid residues linked α2,3 to galactose was demonstrated following Maackia amurensis agglutinin negativity. The use of poly(α2,8-sialyl) endo-N-acylneuraminidase combined with immunodot procedure with a monoclonal antibody that specifically recognizes α2,8-linked polysialic chains revealed that peak IV contains oligosac-charidic epitopes common to polysialyated neural cell adhesion molecules.     

The role of antibody in cellular cytotoxicity to culture human colon carcinoma cells.

The effect of autologous serum in cellular cytotoxicity was compared with the level of antibody towards the same target cells. In cancer patients, a highly significant correlation (P < 0.001) argues that enhancement of cytotoxicity by autologous serum is due to high antibody levels, and conversely an inhibition of cytotoxicity is associated with low antibody. Moreover, some antibody was detected in virtually all cancer patient and normal donor sera. It is suggested that antibody may be responsible for cytotoxicity conventionally ascribed to “natural killer” cells.     

Virus-mediated induction in human lymphocytes of antibody-independent cytotoxicity (VDCC) and enhancement of antibody-dependent cytotoxicity (ADCC) against natural killer-resistant tumor target cells

The effect of Parotis virus on the in vitro cytotoxicity of human lymphocytes against NK-resistant mouse mastocytoma cells was studied. In the ⁵¹Cr-release assay, treatment of lymphocytes with virus induced a rapid cytotoxicity in the absence of anti-P8 15 antibody (virus-dependent cellular Cytotoxicity, VDCC) and strongly enhanced antibody-dependent cytotoxicity (ADCC). At the effector cell level, virus treatment was found to increase the frequency of target-binding cells (TBC) as well as the proportion thereof mediating VDCC and/ or ADCC, indicating recruitment of active effector cells. The recruited cells were heterogeneous but contained a major fraction bearing the T-cell-associated antigen T3. Virus was found to decrease rather than to increase the recycling capacity of the cytotoxic lymphocytes, suggesting that VDCC induction and ADCC enhancement were due to a virus-mediated improvement of effector cell-target cell interactions. VDCC and ADCC enhancement may be of protective importance in early phases of virus infection as well as for the production of nonspecific tissue injuries associated with viral disease.     

Photobiomodulation Protects and Promotes Differentiation of C2C12 Myoblast Cells Exposed to Snake Venom

BackgroundSnakebites is a neglected disease and in Brazil is considered a serious health problem, with the majority of the snakebites caused by the genus Bothrops. Antivenom therapy and other first-aid treatments do not reverse local myonecrose which is the main sequel caused by the envenomation. Several studies have shown the effectiveness of low level laser (LLL) therapy in reducing local myonecrosis induced by Bothropic venoms, however the mechanism involved in this effect is unknown. In this in vitro study, we aimed to analyze the effect of LLL irradiation against cytotoxicity induced by Bothrops jararacussu venom on myoblast C2C12 cells.MethodologyC2C12 were utilized as a model target and were incubated with B. jararacussu venom (12.5 μg/mL) and immediately irradiated with LLL at wavelength of red 685 nm or infrared 830 nm with energy density of 2.0, 4.6 and 7.0 J/cm². Effects of LLL on cellular responses of venom-induced cytotoxicity were examined, including cell viability, measurement of cell damage and intra and extracellular ATP levels, expression of myogenic regulatory factors, as well as cellular differentiation.ResultsIn non-irradiated cells, the venom caused a decrease in cell viability and a massive release of LDH and CK levels indicating myonecrosis. Infrared and red laser at all energy densities were able to considerably decrease venom-induced cytotoxicity. Laser irradiation induced myoblasts to differentiate into myotubes and this effect was accompanied by up regulation of MyoD and specially myogenin. Moreover, LLL was able to reduce the extracellular while increased the intracellular ATP content after venom exposure. In addition, no difference in the intensity of cytotoxicity was shown by non-irradiated and irradiated venom.ConclusionLLL irradiation caused a protective effect on C2C12 cells against the cytotoxicity caused by B. jararacussu venom and promotes differentiation of these cells by up regulation of myogenic factors. A modulatory effect of ATP synthesis may be suggested as a possible mechanism mediating cytoprotection observed under laser irradiation.     

Targeted delivery of paclitaxel using folate-conjugated heparin-poly(β-benzyl-l-aspartate) self-assembled nanoparticles

A self-assembled nanoparticulate system composed of a folate-conjugated heparin-poly(β-benzyl-l-aspartate) (HP) amphiphilic copolymer was proposed for targeted delivery of the antineoplastic drug paclitaxel (PTX). PTX was incorporated into three types of heparin-based nanoparticles, including HP, folate-conjugated HP (FHP), and folate-polyethylene glycol (PEG)-conjugated HP (FPHP), using a simple dialysis method. The PTX-loaded nanoparticles were then characterized according to particle size (140-190 nm) and size distribution, drug-loading content and efficiency, and in vitro release behavior. In the cellular uptake study using KB cells positive for the folate-receptor (FR), FHP and FPHP nanoparticles showed a much higher cellular uptake than did unconjugated HP nanoparticles. Specifically, when the PEG spacer was inserted between the folate ligand and heparin backbone, FPHP nanoparticles had a greater cellular uptake than did FHP nanoparticles. The in vitro cytotoxicity of PTX-loaded HP, FHP, and FPHP nanoparticles was studied in KB cells and FR-negative A549 cells. Compared with the cytotoxicity in A549 cells, PTX-loaded FHP and FPHP nanoparticles exhibited more potent cytotoxicity in KB cells than did PTX-loaded HP nanoparticles and free-PTX, suggesting that the presence of folate enhanced intracellular uptake via FR-mediated endocytosis. In addition, FPHP nanoparticles exhibited much greater cytotoxicity in KB cells than did FHP nanoparticles. These results suggest that PTX-loaded folate-conjugated HP nanoparticles are a potentially useful delivery system for cancer cells positive for the folate-receptor.     

Cytotoxic cells suppress in vitro generation of cellular immunity by stimulator cell lysis

Irradiated BALB/c spleen-cell populations actively cytotoxic to BL/6 alloantigens (modulator cells) were capable of suppression of the in vitro generation of BALB/c anti-BL/6 cellular cytotoxicity. This suppression was abrogated by anti-θ serum plus complement. The suppression was dose dependent on the number of modulator cells and correlated directly with the magnitude of their cytotoxicity. By varying the number of stimulator cells, specific suppression for a relevant stimulator cell and nonspecific suppression for an irrelevant stimulator cell were demonstrated in the same cultures. These data suggest that cytotoxic cells caused specific suppression in mixed lymphocyte culture by lysing stimulator cells although evidence for other nonspecific suppressor factors was seen. A model was proposed suggesting that cell populations possessing high levels of cytotoxicity may feed back negatively on an ongoing immune response by competing with proliferating T cells for cellular antigen.     

Bacterial extracellular vesicles induced oxidative stress and mitophagy through mTOR pathways in colon cancer cells,HT-29: Implications for bioactivity

Bacterial-extracellular-vesicles (BEVs) derived from Escherichia coli, strain-A5922, were used as a therapeutic tool to treat colon cancer cells, HT-29. BEVs induced oxidative stress, and observed mitochondrial autophagy, known as mitophagy, were crucial in initiation of treatment. The mitophagy, induced by the BEVs in HT-29 cells, produced adenocarcinomic cytotoxicity, and stopped the cells growth. The trigger for mitophagy, and an increase in productions of reactive oxygen species led to cellular oxidative stress, that eventually led to cells death. A reduction in the mitochondrial membrane potential, and an increase in the PINK1 expressions confirmed the oxidative stress involvements. The BEVs triggered cytotoxicity, and mitophagy in the HT-29 carcinoid cells, channelized through the Akt/mTOR pathways connecting the cellular oxidative stress, effectively played its part to cause cells death. These findings substantiated the BEVs' potential as a plausible tool for treating, and possibly preventing the colorectal cancer.     

Relationship between the acid phosphatases of the Kurloff body and the major 30–35 kDa glycoproteins of the Kurloff cell

This study deals with the acid phosphatase (AcPase) of the Kurloff body (KB), a large (10 μm diameter) periodic acid-Schiff-positive lysosomal inclusion body present in Kurloff cells (KC). KC AcPase were extracted, with similar yields, either with non-ionic detergent solution or after Dounce homogenization in low ionic strength buffer suggesting that they mainly correspond to hydrosoluble AcPase. After DEAE-cellulose chromatography of such crude Dounce-extracts, 97% of KC AcPase activity was recovered in the unbound glycoprotein fraction (peak I). The main protein content consisted of, as testified by SDS-PAGE analysis, major KC glycoproteins of 30–35 kDa. Thus, KC AcPase, and particularly sialoAcPase, may be assumed to correspond to these N-glycosylproteins among which the presence of α(2,6) sialoglycoproteins was previously established. Following electrophoresis on a 4–15% gradient native polyacrylamide gel or isoelectric focusing, the two size populations (200 kDa and 500 kDa) and up to 20 isoforms of KC AcPase were respectively detected by zymography in peak I. After Clostridium-derived sialidase digestion of peak I, the highly active bands observed at pH 3.5 – 5.2 disappeared. These zymographic patterns were similar to those obtained with crude extracts. After Concanavalin A (ConA)-Sepharose chromatography of peak I, the single ConA-bound glucosamine-labelled peak, eluted at 200 methyl-α-d-mannopyranose, contained the AcPase activity while the ConA-unbound peak was devoid of any acid phosphatase activity. After SDS-PAGE analysis, the ConA-bound fraction appeared to correspond only to a single broad protein band in the 30–35 kDa zone. The Sambucus nigra agglutinin-reactivity of the latter band confirmed the α(2,6) sialylation pattern of KC AcPase. Moreover, their strong binding to ConA-Sepharose suggests that they could only correspond to the hybrid type of the N-glycosylproteins, since they could not correspond to the oligomannosidic type considering the absence of Galanthus nivalis agglutinin-positive structures.     

Differential effects of ouabain on human cell-mediated cytotoxicity. II. Stimulation of monocyte-mediated, spontaneous cytotoxicity against chicken red cell targets.

We have previously shown that ouabain inhibits mitogen-induced cellular cytotoxicity (MICC) and antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) against chicken red cell (CRC) targets. We now report that ouabain increases spontaneous killing of CRC targets in the absence of mitogen or antibody. Spontaneous cytotoxicity by fresh mononuclear leukocytes (MNL) was enhanced by ouabain in a dose-dependent fashion and was maximal at a ouabain concentration of 5 × 10^?5M. Removal of phagocytic cells from the MNL effector cell population abrogated ouabain-induced spontaneous cytotoxicity, suggesting that the effector cell activated by ouabain was a monocyte. Ouabain-induced spontaneous cytotoxicity was relatively inefficient compared to MICC or ADCC and was only demonstrated consistently at effector:target cell ratios higher than those routinely employed for MICC and ADCC. Very low concentrations of ouabain (5 × 10^?9M) also enhanced spontaneous cytotoxicity of MNL precultured for 7 days, when added at either Day 0 or Day 6 of preculture. The cell effecting spontaneous cytotoxicity after 7 days of culture has been previously shown to be a monocyte. Thus, ouabain has opposing effects on cell-mediated cytotoxic functions: it inhibits MICC and ADCC against CRC targets, but stimulates spontaneous, monocyte-mediated cytotoxicity against the same targets.
