Abstract excerpt
Natural killer (NK) cell killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) contribute to the pathogenesis of many diseases. We determined the association between polymorphisms of KIR and their ligands and susceptibility to non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL), clinical features and prognosis. We included 90 patients with NHL and 94 controls. In the NHL group, KIR2DS1, HLA-Bw4 (Thr80) and HLA-Bw4 (Thr80)+/Bw4 (Iso80)- ligands...
