HSV-1 Modulates IL-6 Receptor Expression on Human Dendritic Cells.

abstract：:Natural killer (NK) cells have a central role within the innate immune system, eliminating virally infected, foreign and transformed cells through their natural cytotoxic capacity. Release of their cytotoxic granules is tightly controlled through the balance of a large repertoire of inhibitory and activating receptors...
