Cells.CD3-CD16+CD56+HLA-DR+
Active
Description
Activated natural killer cells are large granular lymphocytes that arise from the bone marrow and play a major role in preventing growth of tumor and virally-infected cells. They usually lack CD3 expression, but express CD2, CD16, CD56, CD57, and sometimes CD8. They are to be distinguished from natural killer T cells (NKT cells) which do carry the CD3 marker. Natural killer cell populations may be increased or decreased with various immunologic abnormalities. Activated NK cells release cytotoxic (cell-killing) granules which destroy altered cells.
