In recent years, roles of the immune system in immune surveillance of cancer have been
explored using a variety of approaches. The roles of the adaptive immune system have been …

Natural killer (NK) cells, similar to other lymphocytes, acquire tolerance to self. This means
that NK cells have the potential to attack normal self cells but that there are mechanisms to …

Our understanding of human natural killer (NK) cell development lags far behind that of
human B‐or T‐cell development. Much of our recent knowledge of this incomplete picture …

A first analysis of the genome sequence of the common marmoset (Callithrix jacchus),
assembled using traditional Sanger methods and Ensembl annotation, has permitted …

Proteins in the signaling lymphocytic activating molecule (SLAM) family play crucial roles in
regulating the immune system. CD244 (SLAMF4) is a protein in this family, and is also a …

Natural killer (NK) cells directly lyse tumor or viral-infected cells but also an important role for
NK cell cytotoxicity in regulating the extent of immune responses is emerging. Here, we …

The signalling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) family of receptors is expressed by a
wide range of immune cells. Through their cytoplasmic domain, SLAM family receptors …

How receptor acquisition correlates with the functional maturation of natural killer (NK) cells
is poorly understood. We used quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (PCR) …

The signaling lymphocytic activation molecule (SLAM) family of receptors and the SLAM-
associated protein (SAP) family of intracellular adaptors are expressed in immune cells. By …

Inhibitory receptors specific for major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I molecules
govern the capacity of natural killer (NK) cells to attack class I‐deficient cells ('missing‐self …
