  • Title: Resistance to interferon of a human adenocarcinoma cell line, HEC-1, and its sensitivity to natural killer cell action.
    Author: Chen HY, Sato T, Fuse A, Kuwata T, Content J.
    Journal: J Gen Virol; 1981 Jan; 52(Pt 1):177-81. PubMed ID: 6167662.
    Abstract:
    A human endometrial cancer cell line, HEC-1, was found to be resistant to the antiviral and anticellular action of interferon. However, HEC-1 cells were susceptible to the cytotoxicity of natural killer (NK) cells, and interferon enhanced such NK activity. When HEC-1 cells were treated with interferon, sensitivity of HEC cells to the cytotoxicity of NK cells was not suppressed.
