NK cells differ from natural killer T cells (NKTs) phenotypically, by origin and by respective effector functions; often, NKT cell activity promotes NK cell activity by secreting interferon gamma.
Natural killer cells (NK cells) are white blood cells that destroy infected and diseased cells, like cancer cells. They’re also a type of lymphocyte, like B-cells and T-cells. NK cells can destroy harmful cells in the early stages, preventing viruses and cancer cells from spreading.
Natural killer (NK) cells are effector lymphocytes of the innate immune system that control several types of tumors and microbial infections by limiting their spread and subsequent tissue...
Natural killer (NK) cells are the predominant innate lymphocyte subsets that mediate anti-tumor and anti-viral responses, and therefore possess promising clinical utilization. NK cells do not express polymorphic clonotypic receptors and utilize ...
The cell-based NK therapies use various sources of NK cell products that are injected into the patients, such as ex vivo conditioned NK cells, genetically manipulated NK cells and CAR NK cells.
Human natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphoid cells that mediate important effector functions in the control of viral infection and malignancy. Their ability to distinguish ‘self’ from ‘non-self’ and lyse virally infected and tumorigenic cells ...
Natural killer or NK cells are a subpopulation of large granular lymphocytes that arise from a common NK/T-cell progenitor. Accumulating evidence indicates that NK cells can develop and mature both in the bone marrow and secondary lymphoid tissues including tonsils, spleen, and lymph nodes.[1]
