Nitrites 79-86 interleukin 2 Rattus norvegicus 204-209 1804302-14 1991 From the results obtained, it is assumed that rIL-2 and rIFN-gamma enhance the cytotoxicity of macrophages while rIL-4 inhibits the cytotoxicity against T. vaginalis, and that the production of nitrite does not relate with the cytotoxicity of macrophages, but nitric oxide may play a role as an inhibitory factor on the proliferation of T. vaginalis.
