SARS-CoV-2 escapes direct NK cell killing through Nsp1-mediated downregulation of ligands for NKG2D

MJ Lee, MW Leong, A Rustagi, A Beck, L Zeng… - Cell reports, 2022 - cell.com
Natural killer (NK) cells are cytotoxic effector cells that target and lyse virally infected cells;
many viruses therefore encode mechanisms to escape such NK cell killing. Here, we …
