NATURE IMMUNOLOGY
FOCUS ON NATURAL KILLER CELLS
Natural killer cells influence immune responses to tumors, infections
and pregnancy. Nature Immunology presents a series of specially
commissioned articles that focus on natural killer cells and their
far-reaching effects on diverse cell types and biological responses.
The web focus, free for six months, also includes highlights of recent
research findings, an annotated list of classic articles and links to
selected NPG papers pertinent to this field.
