Natural killer (NK) cell is a specialized immune effector cell type that plays a critical role in
immune activation against abnormal cells. Different from events required for T cell activation …

Natural killer (NK) cells are cytotoxic lymphocytes of the innate immune system that are
capable of killing virally infected and/or cancerous cells. Nearly 20 years ago, NK cell …

Natural Killer (NK) cells and CD8+ cytotoxic T cells are two types of immune cells that can
kill target cells through similar cytotoxic mechanisms. With the remarkable success of …

Natural killer (NK) cells can swiftly kill multiple adjacent cells if these show surface markers
associated with oncogenic transformation. This property, which is unique among immune …

Due to their efficient recognition and lysis of malignant cells, natural killer (NK) cells are
considered as specialized immune cells that can be genetically modified to obtain capable …

Natural killer (NK) cells are unique immune effectors able to kill cancer cells by direct
recognition of surface ligands, without prior sensitization. Allogeneic NK transfer is a highly …

Natural killer (NK) cells are lymphocytes of the innate immune system. A key feature of NK
cells is their ability to recognize a wide range of cells in distress, particularly tumour cells …

Chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) significantly enhance the anti-tumor activity of immune
effector cells. Although most studies have evaluated CAR expression in T cells, here we …

NK cells are central to anti-tumor immunity and recently showed efficacy for treating
hematologic malignancies. However, their dysfunction in the hostile tumor microenvironment …

Natural killer cells (NK cells) are the first line of the innate immune defense system, primarily
located in peripheral circulation and lymphoid tissues. They kill virally infected and …
