Genetic Manipulation Approaches to Enhance the Clinical Application of NK Cell-...
Maia, Andreia; Tarannum, Mubin; Romee, RizwanNatural killer (NK) cells are a subset of cytotoxic lymphocytes within the innate immune system. While they are naturally cytotoxic, genetic modifications can enhance their tumor-targeting capability, cytotoxicity, persistence, tumor infiltration, and prevent exhaustion. These improvements hold the potential to make NK-cell-based immunotherapies more effective in clinical applications. Currently, several viral ...
