Natural killer (NK) cells are immune cells that play a crucial role against viral infections and
tumors. To be tolerant against healthy tissue and simultaneously attack infected cells, the …

Killer cell immunoglobulin‐like receptors (KIR s) on natural killer (NK) cells are crucially
involved in the control of cancer development and virus infection by probing cells for proper …

Shaping natural killer (NK) cell functions in human immunity and reproduction are diverse
killer cell immunoglobulin‐like receptors (KIR s) that recognize polymorphic MHC class I …

Natural killer (NK) cells have diverse roles in hominid immunity and reproduction.
Modulating these functions are the interactions between major histocompatibility complex …

Researchers dealing with the human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I and killer
immunoglobulin receptor (KIR) multi‐gene families in humans are often wary of the complex …

Natural killer (NK) cell functions are modulated by polymorphic killer cell immunoglobulin-
like receptors (KIR). Among 13 human KIR genes, which vary by presence and copy …

The killer immunoglobulin‐like receptors (KIR) as well as their MHC class I ligands display
enormous genetic diversity and polymorphism in macaque species. Signals resulting from …

Defining the MHC class I ligands of rhesus macaque killer cell Ig-like receptors (KIRs) is
fundamental to NK cell biology in this species as a model for infectious diseases and …

Natural killer (NK) cells are the major innate effectors primed to eliminate virus-infected and
tumor or neoplastic cells. Recent studies also suggest nuances in phenotypic and functional …

The gene products of the HLA/MHC and KIR multigene families are important modulators of
the immune system and are associated with health and disease. Characterization of the …
