Uterine Natural Killer Cells [PDF]
Frontiers 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 ...

Natural killer cells and natural killer T cells in Lyme arthritis [PDF]
Arthritis Research & Therapy, 2013 Introduction: Natural killer (NK) and natural killer T (NKT) cells provide a first line of defense against infection. However, these cells have not yet been examined in patients with Lyme arthritis, a late disease manifestation.

Natural killer cell neoplasms [PDF]
Cancer, 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.

Natural Killer Cell Memory [PDF]
Immunity, 2015 Natural killer (NK) cells have historically been considered short-lived cytolytic cells that can rapidly respond against pathogens and tumors in an antigen-independent manner and then undergo cell death. Recently, however, NK cells have been shown to possess traits of adaptive immunity and can acquire immunological memory in a manner similar to that of

SnapShot: Natural Killer Cells
Cell, 2020 NK cells are broadly distributed innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) encompassing distinct populations based on CD11b and CD27 expression in mice or CD56 intensity in humans. Involved in anti-viral and anti-tumor immunity thanks to their cytokines and chemokines secretion as well as their cytotoxic capabilities, NK cells have emerged as a promising ...

In vivo generation of decidual natural killer cells from resident hematopoietic progenitors
Haematologica, 2014 Decidual natural killer cells accumulate at the fetal-maternal interface and play a key role in a successful pregnancy. However, their origin is still unknown.

Organ-specific features of natural killer cells. [PDF]
, 2011 Natural killer (NK) cells can be swiftly mobilized by danger signals and are among the earliest arrivals at target organs of disease. However, the role of NK cells in mounting inflammatory responses is often complex and sometimes paradoxical.

Regulation of NKG2D-Dependent NK Cell Functions: The Yin and the Yang of Receptor Endocytosis. [PDF]
, 2017 Natural-killer receptor group 2, member D (NKG2D) is a well characterized natural killer (NK) cell activating receptor that recognizes several ligands poorly expressed on healthy cells but up-regulated upon stressing stimuli in the context of cancer or ...
