abstract：:The liver contains a unique repertoire of immune cells and a particular abundance of NK cells. We have found that CD11c defines a distinct subset of NK cells (NK1.1(+)CD3(-)) in the murine liver whose function was currently unknown. In naïve animals, CD11c(+) liver NK cells displayed an activated phenotype and possess...
