by repeated subcultivation of bhk-r cells in growth medium free of hvj , the sensitivity to natural killer cytotoxicity decreased to the level of normal bhk cells with a counter increase of cellular sialic acid , and the subsequent treatment of the cells with neuraminidase caused a loss of proper sialic acid residues , once again resulting in a significant enhancement of lysis by natural killer cells .
