Mature natural killer (NK) cells are able to vigorously proliferate in response to infectious stimuli such as viral infections. The factors driving NK cell proliferation under these circumstances are only beginning to be characterized. NK cells constitutively express interleukin-18 receptor α and are stimulated by IL-18 to produce IFNγ. Although IL-18 alone is not sufficient to drive NK cell proliferation,...
Natural killer (NK) cells play a crucial role in the initial host defense against pathogens such as murine cytomegalovirus (MCMV). They respond rapidly and effectively control pathogen replication while the adaptive immune system is being activated. However, in the absence of an adaptive immune system, an effective initial NK cell response is not sufficient for long-term pathogen control as demonstrated...
