Structural equation model testing and the quality of natural killer cell activity measurements [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Medical Research Methodology, 2005
Background Browne et al. [Browne, MacCallum, Kim, Andersen, Glaser: When fit indices and residuals are incompatible. Psychol Methods 2002] employed a structural equation model of measurements of target cell lysing by natural killer cells as an example ...

Deciphering Natural Killer Cell Homeostasis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Natural killer (NK) cells have a central role within the innate immune system, eliminating virally infected, foreign and transformed cells through their natural cytotoxic capacity.

Nanomaterial assisted natural killer cell therapy [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
The rising incidence of cancer has heightened interest in immune cell therapy, particularly the role of natural killer (NK) cells, which are essential components of the immune system.

Uterine Natural Killer Cells [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Natural killer (NK) cells are members of a rapidly expanding family of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). While most previously studied NK cells were derived from the mouse spleen and circulate in the blood, recently others and we found tissue-resident NK (trNK) cells in many tissues that resemble group 1 ILCs (ILC1s).

Skin TLR7 triggering promotes accumulation of respiratory dendritic cells and natural killer cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The TLR7 agonist imiquimod has been used successfully as adjuvant for skin treatment of virus-associated warts and basal cell carcinoma. The effects of skin TLR7 triggering on respiratory leukocyte populations are unknown.

Natural killer cell neoplasms [PDF]

open access: yesCancer, 2008
AbstractNatural killer (NK) cell tumors are an uncommon and heterogeneous group of disorders. The World Health Organization (WHO) classified mature NK cell neoplasms into 2 types: 1) extranodal NK cell lymphoma, nasal type and 2) aggressive NK cell leukemia. The mature NK cell tumors are prevalent in Asia and Central and South America.

Expression of ligands for activating natural killer cell receptors on cell lines commonly used to assess natural killer cell function

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2019
Background Natural killer cell responses to virally-infected or transformed cells depend on the integration of signals received through inhibitory and activating natural killer cell receptors.

Measurement of uterine natural killer cell percentage in the periimplantation endometrium from fertile women and women with recurrent reproductive failure: establishment of a reference range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background Uterine natural killer cells are the major leukocytes present in the periimplantation endometrium. Previous studies have found controversial differences in uterine natural killer cell percentage in women with recurrent reproductive ...

Natural killer cells [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1999
Perhaps, but probably not a long or healthy life. There is only one documented human case of an absolute NK cell deficiency, which was associated with recurrent life-threatening bacterial and viral infections.
