Abstract excerpt

Natural killer cells (NK) are the first arm of the innate immune system in defense against tumor and infection. 16 distinct Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) are involved in orchestrating NK cell function. The KIR family contains 14 genes and 2 pseudogenes. Six of these receptors are activating (aKIR) and the remaining receptors are inhibitory KIRs (iKIR), that interact with MHC-I molecules;...
