Abstract excerpt
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection significantly affects innate immune responses, particularly those of natural killer (NK) cells, which play an important role in antiviral defence. This review combines phenotypic, functional, and transcriptomic findings to explain the disruption of NK cell subsets in COVID-19. Flow cytometry studies have shown generalised lymphopenia and a...
