Abstract:
Abstract Although natural killer (NK) cells are often described as first line defense against infected or malignant cells which act without the need of prior activation, it is known now that the NK cell activity is tightly regulated by other cells and soluble factors. We show here that the stress-inducible heat shock protein (HSP) 70 activates human NK cells to kill target cells expressing MICA (major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related molecule A) in a NKG2D (natural killer group 2...     »
