Aberrant expression of alpha-Gal on primary human endothelium does not confer susceptibility to NK cell cytotoxicity or increased NK cell adhesion.

abstract：:Several groups have described that a low percentage of in vitro cultured T cell receptor (TcR) gamma/delta cells express CD8. Contrary to TcR alpha/beta cells, however, CD8 on these TcR gamma/delta cells was shown to be a CD8 alpha homodimer. We describe here that addition of interleukin-7 (IL-7) to a short-term in vi...
