Recognition of virus-infected cells by natural killer cell clones is controlled by polymorphic target cell elements.

1 Sept 1993

Abstract excerpt

Natural killer (NK) cells provide a first line of defense against viral infections. The mechanisms by which NK cells recognize and eliminate infected cells are still largely unknown. To test whether target cell elements contribute to NK cell recognition of virus-infected cells, human NK cells were cloned from two unrelated donors and assayed for their ability to kill normal autologous or allogeneic cells before...
