A Functional Genetic Variant at the C-Reactive Protein Promoter (rs3091244) Is Not Associated With Cancer Risk in a Chinese Population.

abstract：:Human natural killer (NK) cells are functionally regulated by killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) and their interactions with HLA class I molecules. As KIR expression in a given NK cell is stochastically established, KIR repertoire perturbations reflect a dominance of discrete NK-cell subsets as the conse...
