Natural Killer cells responsiveness to physical esercise: a brief review [PDF]
Natural killer cells (NK) are a group of peripheral blood lymphocytes which display cytotoxic ac- tivity against a wide range of tumour cells. They are a consistent part of the inflammatory re- sponse that is activated when either internal or external ...

Altered CD94/NKG2A and perforin expression reduce the cytotoxic activity in malignant pleural effusions [PDF]
CD94/NKG2A is an inhibitory receptor expressed by NK cells and cytotoxic lymphocytes and, upon activation by HLA-E, downregulates the cytolytic activities of these cells thus representing a tumour immune escape mechanism.
