- Natural Killer Cells: Development, Maturation, and Clinical Utilization (2018, background): “The cytolytic function of NK cells can initiate through a variety of processes, including degranulation and death receptor ligation, and is critical for the clearance of diseased and dysfunctional cells (132, 133).”
- Microbial flora drives interleukin 22 production in intestinal NKp46+ cells that provide innate mucosal immune defense. (2008, background): “Optimal granule-mediated cytotoxicity requires the coordinated activity of the pore-forming protein perforin and a family of granzyme serine proteases (Kagi et al., 1994; Shresta et al., 1995; Smyth et al., 2005).”
