Main outcome variables
-
safety check variables:
Physical examination, vital signs and laboratory measurements including blood biochemistry (BC) and complete blood count (CBC).
Variables for investigating the immunomodulatory effect:
Measuring the levels of cytokines TNF-a and IL-12 in serum samples by ELISA method
Measuring the level of cytokine IFN-γ in the supernatant
Measuring the proliferation and activation of NK cells by flow cytometry using FITC-a-human CD56 and PE-a-human CD314 (NKG2D) antibodies.
