A study of natural killer cell lectin-like receptor K1 gene (KLRK1/NKG2D) region polymorphisms in a European population sample.

Tissue antigens - 1 Feb 2009

Ucisik-Akkaya E, Dorak M T

Abstract excerpt

Recent evidence has reinforced the belief in immunosurveillance as a powerful mechanism against cancer development. The natural killer (NK) cell has been recognized as a potent agent of cancer immunosurveillance. A Japanese cohort study correlated natural cytotoxic activity levels with subsequent cancer development and identified NK cell lectin-like receptor K1 gene (KLRK1/NKG2D) polymorphisms as genetic markers...
