Extreme prematurity and sepsis strongly influence frequencies and functional characteristics of circulating γδ T and natural killer cells

Abstract Objectives Extremely low gestational age neonates with extremely low birthweight (ELGAN/ELBW) are highly susceptible to infection. This is linked to their relatively immature immune system which is not yet fully compatible with an extra‐uterine environment. Here, we performed a longitudinal...
