autoimmunity,NK,linomide

[Jan Zenka]

Dear colleagues,

	I have seen that there are some relations between NK cells count and
progression of autoimmune diseases. Could anyone explain what is the role of
NK cells in autoimmunity?

I have read that immunomodulator Linomide can be used for treatment of some
autoimmune diseases including MS. Does anybody known what is the mechanism
of action of this compound (quinoline-3-carboxamide)?

I will appreciate any information about these questions.

Thank you in advance,
