Natural Killer Cells Determine Development of Allergen-induced Eosinophilic Airway Inflammation in Mice

Korsgren, Magnus, Persson, Carl G.A., Sundler, Frank, Bjerke, Torbjörn, Hansson, Tony, Chambers, Benedict J., ...

The earliest contact between antigen and the innate immune system is thought to direct the subsequent antigen-specific T cell response. We hypothesized that cells of the innate immune system, such as...
