Abstract excerpt
The natural killer (NK) cell-specific p58 molecules EB6 and GL183 have been shown to represent the putative surface receptors for two distinct groups of human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA) C alleles. Interaction between p58 receptors and class I molecules expressed on target cells results in inhibition of the NK-mediated cytolytic activity and thus in target cell protection. In the present study, we...
