Origins of natural killer cell memory: special creation or adaptive evolution.

Immunology - 1 May 2018

Holder Kayla A, Comeau Emilie M, Grant Michael D

Abstract excerpt

The few initial formative studies describing non-specific and apparently spontaneous activity of natural killer (NK) cells have since multiplied into thousands of scientific reports defining their unique capacities and means of regulation. Characterization of the array of receptors that govern NK cell education and activation revealed an unexpected relationship with the major histocompatibility molecules that NK...
