The role of natural killer cells in adaptive immune responses

2010-01-01

Abstract excerpt

Human natural killer (NK) cells have been shown to respond to numerous pathogenic stimuli, producing IFN-y as well as cytolytic effector molecules such as perforin and granzymes. Previous work on NK cell responses to Plasmodium fa/ciparum-infected erythrocytes (Pf-RBC) has shown that these responses are dependent on contact with accessory cells, such as macrophages and myeloid-lineage dendritic cells (mDCs), as we...
