It was showed that the effector and target cells could actively and chemotactically move toward each other. LAK and HR8348 cells contacted with each other through cellular projections and microvilli. The LAK cells simply attached to the HR8348 cells at the early stagr, followed by jigsaw-like binding with them. After conjunction, the target cells' membrane appeared to blister and became perforated. The conjunction of microvilli and projection may act as a physical microbridge in the lysis of the target cells, and killing factors may mediate the lysis by the microbridge. 'Closed chamber' was formed between the conjunctive microvilli, which may play an important role in maintaining local concentration of the killing substances.展开更多

After 30 min incubation of effector and target cells together, gold-labeled cytoplasmic granules were often seen concentrated in the area of the LGL adjacent to the bound YAC-1 target. Within 60 min, the granules were observed to move to the cell border near the conjugated site. At this point, the granules were fused with the cell membrane. and subsequently released the gold-labeled contents into the junction between the LGL and the target cell. Gold particles could be seen at the E-T interface, on the LGL surface, or sometimes on the target cell surface. These data provide direct evidence for the hypothesis that under conditions of active cytotoxicity, natural killer cells secrete their cytoplasmic granule contents leading to the deposition of granule material on the target cell surface and the eventual lysis of the cell.展开更多
