Abstract excerpt

Breast cancer (BC) progression and metastases have been linked to antitumor immunity inefficiency and particularly to natural killer (NK) cells. Killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) are the most polymorphic receptors of NK cells. Through their interactions with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-C ligands, they modulate NK and T cell actions against target cells. Therefore, we studied the combinatorial...
