Immunoregulation and natural killer cells
Molecular Immunology, 1982Natural killer (NK) cells have a cytotoxic activity against a variety of tumor cells and also against some microorganisms or cells infected by microbial agents. They may thereby serve as important effector cells in host resistance against disease. NK cells are present in virtually all individuals, can be activated rapidly by a wide range of stimuli ...

Functions of natural killer cells
Nature Immunology, 2008Natural killer (NK) cells are effector lymphocytes of the innate immune system that control several types of tumors and microbial infections by limiting their spread and subsequent tissue damage. Recent research highlights the fact that NK cells are also regulatory cells engaged in reciprocal interactions with dendritic cells, macrophages, T cells and ...

Natural killer (NK) cells have received much attention due to their cytotoxic abilities, often with a focus on their implications for cancer and transplantation. But despite their name, NK cells are also potent producers of cytokines like interferon-gamma.

1996
Natural Killer (NK) cells represent a distinct lymphoid lineage. These cells were initially defined functionally by their ability to kill certain virally infected cells and tumor cells (reviewed in Trinchieri 1989; Ritz et al. 1988). This unique function and its evolutionary conservation led to the classification of NK cells as part of the innate ...

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1997
The specificity in the recognition of hematopoietic target cells by natural killer cells is primarily provided by inhibitory receptors and several such receptors have been identified in the past year. Surprisingly, the recognition of MHC class I molecules by inhibitory receptors on human natural killer cells involves two different types of receptors ...

Natural killer cells and pregnancy
Nature Reviews Immunology, 2002The fetus is considered to be an allograft that, paradoxically, survives pregnancy despite the laws of classical transplantation immunology. There is no direct contact of the mother with the embryo, only with the extraembryonic placenta as it implants in the uterus.

Natural-Killer cells in scleroderma
1992Progressive systemic sclerosis (PSS) is a disease of unknown aetiology. The presence of various immunological abnormalities and clinical overlapping with diseases such as systemic lupus erythematous have led to the characterization of PSS as an autoimmune disease.
