The effects of in vivo administration of di-M-PGE2 and IFN on NK activity in normal and in cyclophosphamide(CY)-treated mice, were studied. In normal mice IFN increased the NK activity while di-M-PGE2 alone and in combined treatment with IFN suppressed the NK response. On the contrary in immunosuppressed mice IFN did not lead to the reconstitution of CY-suppressed NK activity; di-M-PGE2 augmented it only a little, while the combined treatment with di-M-PGE-2 and IFN produced a significant increase in NK response.
