Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The development of bronchiolitis obliterans syndrome (BOS) after lung transplantation is associated with viral infections. Natural killer (NK) cells are involved in the lysis of viral infected cells, and their activation is largely controlled by activating and inhibitory killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs). We hypothesized that KIR ligand incompatibility and recipients' individual KIRs could...
