Highlights of 2024: Cytokines and ligands modulating NK cell effector functions

In this article for the "Highlights of 2024" Series, we discuss natural killer cells, which are essential players in immune defense, with their function tightly regulated by cytokines and ligand-receptor interactions. We discuss important recent findings that have uncovered critical regulatory pathways shaping NK cell activity.

Abstract

In this article for the "Highlights of 2024" Series, we discuss natural killer cells, which are essential players in immune defense, with their function tightly regulated by cytokines and ligand-receptor interactions. We discuss important recent findings that have uncovered critical regulatory pathways shaping NK cell activity.
