Ablation of SYK kinase from primary human Natural Killer cells via CRISPR/Cas9 enhances cytotoxicity and cytokine production
2022-05-29
Abstract excerpt
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection alters natural killer (NK) cell phenotype and function toward a more memory-like immune state. These cells, termed adaptive NK cells, typically express CD57 and NKG2C but lack expression of the Fc receptor γ chain (Gene: FCER1G , FcRγ), PLZF, and SYK. Functionally, adaptive NK cells display enhanced antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and cytokine production. However, t...
