Moffitt Cancer Center researchers have discovered a promising new vaccine strategy for treating a specific type of breast ...

Natural killer cell deficiency should be considered in patients susceptible to herpes or papilloma viruses with persistently decreased NK cell function.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), the most common type of primary liver cancer, accounts for about 75–85% of all liver cancer ...

Wildfire smoke exposure acutely increased IL-13 expression in NK cells and was negatively associated with COVID-19 vaccine immunity.

A new type of antibody which stimulates the immune system to target cancer cells slows tumour growth, according to new research.

For flow cytometry analysis, cells were washed with PBS containing 10% FBS and incubated for 30 minutes at 4°C for labeling with anti-CD3-FITC (BD Biosciences, clone OKT3), anti-CD56-PE (Miltenyi ...

Furthermore, treatment polarised NK cell IFN signalling from STAT4 towards STAT1 dependency. Strikingly, a high frequency of CD56 dim NK cells at baseline was positively associated with IFNα treatment ...

The mNKs response was mediated by CD56 dim NK cells coexpressing CD57, CD69 and KLRG1. Further, mNKs from chronic hepatitis B patients exhibited greater degranulation against HBcAg-pulsed moDCs ...

ACROBiosystems has developed a robust, novel means of inducing NK cells from iPSCs under entirely serum-free conditions. Using this method, the proportion of CD3-CD56+ NK cells reached 85.9% after ...

Get Instant Summarized Text (Gist) A new strategy using genetically modified natural killer (NK) cells has been developed to target HIV-positive cells. By expressing CD64, these NK cells can hold ...
