NK cells play important roles in innate defenses against viruses and in the control of tumor
growth and metastasis. The regulation/induction of NK cell function is mediated by an array …

Natural killer (NK) cells contribute to the first line of defense against viruses and to the
control of tumor growth and metastasis spread. The discovery of HLA class I specific …

Natural killer (NK) cells are innate lymphocytes that are crucial for the control of infections
and malignancies. NK cells express a variety of inhibitory and activating receptors that …

Natural killer (NK) cells play critical roles in immune defense and reproduction, yet remain
the most poorly understood major lymphocyte population. Because their activation is …

Human natural killer (NK) cells are functionally regulated by killer cell immunoglobulin-like
receptors (KIRs) and their interactions with HLA class I molecules. As KIR expression in a …

Natural killer (NK) cells have roles in immunity and reproduction that are controlled by
variable receptors that recognize MHC class I molecules. The variable NK cell receptors …

Our understanding of development and function of natural killer (NK) cells has progressed
significantly in recent years. However, exactly how uterine NK (uNK) cells develop and …

Whole genome comparisons identified introgression from archaic to modern humans. Our
analysis of highly polymorphic human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I, vital immune system …

Many common disorders of pregnancy are attributed to insufficient invasion of the uterine
lining by trophoblast, fetal cells that are the major cell type of the placenta. Interactions …

Stimulation or tolerance of natural killer (NK) cells is achieved through a cross‐talk of signals
derived from cell surface activating and inhibitory receptors. Killer cell immunoglobulin‐like …
