The killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors of macaques.

Immunological reviews - 1 Sept 2015

Bimber Benjamin N, Evans David T

Abstract excerpt

Natural killer (NK) cells play a central role in immune responses through direct cytotoxicity and the release of cytokines that prime adaptive immunity. In simian primates, NK cell responses are regulated by interactions between two highly polymorphic sets of molecules: the killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) and their major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I ligands. KIR-MHC class I...
