Pengaruh Ekstrak Jamu terhadap Aktivitas Sel Natural Killer dalam Melisis Alur Leukimia (K-562) secara In Vitro

Abstract

Natural killer(NK) cell consitutes white blood cells which specifically functions in lysing tumor and virus invected cells. in this research a commercial "Jamu" was tested to observe its affect on NK cells activity against leukemic cell lines (K562) in vitro, Jamu was extracted with hot water, diuted and added into cell cultures consisted of a mixture of human peripheric limphocyte cells, as the source of the effector NK cells, and K562 cell line i.e the target cell which were cells line derived from human leukimia and had been labelled with H3-thymidline.
