Abstract excerpt
NK cells change their phenotype and functional characteristics during activation. In this work, we searched for a relationship of HLA-DR expression with differentiation stages and functional activity of NK cells ex vivo and stimulated in vitro with IL-2 challenged with gene modified feeder K562 cells expressing membrane-bound IL-21 (K562-mbIL21). This stimulation technique has been described for NK cell expansion...
