Tumor-derived NKG2D ligand sMIC reprograms NK cells to an inflammatory phenotype through CBM signalosome activation
Dhar et al used primary human and mouse natural killer (NK) cells to demonstrate that tumor-derived NKG2D ligand soluble MIC (sMIC) can reprogram the NK cells to secrete pro-tumorigenic cytokines with diminished cytotoxicity and polyfunctional potential. Their study provides a rationale for co-targe...
