pubmed:abstractText
Killer lymphocytes induce apoptosis by the release of cytotoxic mediators from specialized secretory lysosomes, called cytotoxic granules, into the immunological synapse formed with a cell targeted for elimination. Methods are presented here for isolating CTL and NK cell cytotoxic granules using cell disruption by nitrogen cavitation followed by continuous Percoll density gradient fractionation. Protocols are also given for purifying the key cytolytic molecules (perforin, granzyme A, granzyme B, and granulysin) from isolated cytotoxic granules by fast protein liquid chromatography.
