| Research Abstract |
In this study, we tried to clarify the regulation of activation of NK cells by polysaccharides. The reported glycanligands of NKRs and NCRs affected the cytotoxicity by NK cells and up-regulation of CD3zeta phosphorylation. These results suggested that the specific glycan of target cells affected the NK activation via NCR1 or NCR3 molecules
