Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity Electronic Mail List

DISCONTINUED The Cell-Mediated Cytotoxicity EMail List was discontinued early in 2000 (traffic had been very light). A volunteer was sought to take over maintenance of the list but none came forth. I still have the emails of the 200 or so subscribers -- if you want to volunteer to rejuvenate this list and take over its maintenance, please contact emartz@microbio.umass.edu.

The cytotox email list was created in May, 1994 for sharing ideas concerning mechanisms of cell-mediated cytotoxicity. This includes cytotoxic mechanisms of leukocytes, such as CTL, NK, and phagocytes, and their roles in vivo. Messages sent to the list 1994-2000 are still available.

The cytotox email list was a non-profit, free service provided by Eric Martz and the University of Massachusetts. The purpose of the list was to support research and education. For-profit use of the list, such as for advertising, was prohibited, except for occasional brief announcements of new products or services relevant to the topic of the list. Subscribers with commercial affiliations were welcome, as was their participation in educational/research discussions, including such discussions which concerned their commercial products.
