• Pre-activation with IL-12, IL-15, and IL-18 induces CD25 and a functional high affinity IL-2 receptor on human cytokine-induced memory-like NK cells (2014, background): “We observed substantial donor-dependent variability in the degree of proliferation by CD56dim NK cells as demonstrated in Figure 5B and C, presumably due to reported differences in the proliferative capacity of human NK subsets [37-39].”
• Expansion of a unique CD57+NKG2Chi natural killer cell subset during acute human cytomegalovirus infection (2011, background): “We and others reported that CD57 NK cells have a proliferation defect in vitro (31, 32), and after human stem cell transplantation (31).”
