Human natural killer cell deficiencies and susceptibility to infection.

Microbes and infection - 1 Dec 2002

Orange Jordan S

Abstract excerpt

There are a surprisingly large number of human natural killer (NK) cell deficiency states that provide insight into the role of NK cells in defense against human infectious disease. Many disorders associated with NK cell defects are caused by single gene mutations and, thus, give additional understanding concerning the function of specific molecules in NK cell development and activities. A resounding theme of NK...
