Abstract
Natural killer functional activity is normal at early stages of tumor process in patients with low-malignant skin lymphomas; this parameter is suppressed after 15-20 years of the disease. Leakadin in a total do se 10 g and prednisolone in maintenance doses suppressed natural kille r activity, whereas prospidin in a total dose 4 g did not show such an effect. Thymalin or thymogen normalized natural killer activity.
