Abstract:
Natural killer (NK) cell activity was analyzed both in peripheral blood and spleen in mice following a single and repeated blood withdrawal from tail vein. No statistically significant changes of activity of NK cells in consequence of either single or multiple bleedings was observed. The schedule of bleeding used in this study does not seem to influence an absolute count in blood and spleen cellularity, either.
