title: [Recent data on antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity, or the ADCC phenomenon].
abstract: A review of the recent literature on ADCC affords strong evidence that this cytotoxicity phenomenon, discovered fortuitously in 1965, can no longer be considered only a laboratory curiosity. It is, in fact, more than probable that ADCC is involved in most defense mechanisms of the individual from allograft immunity and antitumoral defense to the resistance of the host against most pathogens.
