Abstract
NK cells are broadly distributed innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) encompassing distinct populations based on CD11b and CD27 expression in mice or CD56 intensity in humans. Involved in anti-viral and anti-tumor immunity thanks to their cytokines and chemokines secretion as well as their cytotoxic capabilities, NK cells have emerged as a promising therapeutic target in several solid tumors and hematological malignancies.
