CXCR4 coordinates adhesion, migration, and development of human NK cells

2026-03-15

Abstract excerpt

Natural killer (NK) cells undergo stepwise differentiation from multipotent progenitors within secondary lymphoid tissues. Despite the central importance of the tissue microenvironment in their development, little is known about cell-cell interactions that regulate human NK cell trafficking and maturation. Here, we identify the chemokine receptor CXCR4 and its lig- and CXCL12 as regulators of stromal-NK cell inter...
