Transcriptome analysis reveals similarities between human blood CD3− CD56bright cells and mouse CD127+ innate lymphoid cells
8 Jun 2017
Abstract excerpt
Abstract For many years, human peripheral blood natural killer (NK) cells have been divided into functionally distinct CD3−CD56brightCD16−and CD3−CD56dimCD16+subsets. Recently, several groups of innate lymphoid cells (ILC), distinct from NK cells in development and function, have been defined in mouse. A signature of genes present in mouse ILC except NK cells, defined by Immunological Genome Project studies, is...
