To investigate the possible involvement of some cell surface structures on lymphoid cells in the functional activity of lymphokine activated killer (LAK) cells, a number of monoclonal antibodies (Mab) against such structures was studied for their ability to inhibit LAK activity in a standard cytotoxicity assay against the natural killer-insensitive target cell EL-4. Almost complete inhibition of L
