Natural killer cells and the MHC class I pathway of peptide presentation.

Seminars in immunology - 1 Apr 1993

Kärre K

Abstract excerpt

Natural killer (NK) cells are TcR-Ig- lymphocytes that can mediate resistance to tumor growth, virus infections and bone marrow transplants. The receptors and specificity of NK cells are not clear, although it has been suggested that cytolytic triggering may be facilitated by lack of host matched MHC expression in the target or the graft. This article reviews and analyzes the role of the MHC class I pathway of...
