Mouse liver contains two natural killer (NK) cell populations, one of which recirculates while the other is tissue resident. Following this discovery, several groups have sought to identify liver-resident NK (lrNK) cells in humans. Here, I present an overview of recent advances in the field.
鼠肝中含有两种自然杀伤 (NK) 细胞群体,其中一种循环,另一种为组织驻留细胞。在这一发现之后,有几个研究小组试图在人类中鉴定肝驻留 NK (lrNK) 细胞。在此,我对该领域的最新进展进行了概述。
