While CD56 expression could be used to indicate a hyper-functional state of NK cells, it does not directly influence the anti-tumor functions of expanded NK cells @jlb_journal Congrats, @Ana_LPortillo! @Ashkar_Lab doi.org/10.1093/jleuko/qiae2…

New findings from @LMathae, @Lisette_kr, @Sermarho, @itziarILC et al. suggest that human #ILC2s can acquire innate immune memory and warrant a revision of the current strategies to identify human ILC2s. hubs.la/Q02CCqpc0 #InnateImmunity #inflammation #LymphocyteBiology
