Increased expression of TIGIT and KLRG1 correlates with impaired CD56bright NK cell immunity in HPV16-related cervical intraepithelial neoplasia
Abstract Background The onset and progression of cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) are closely associated with the persistent infection of high-risk HPV (especially type16), which is mainly caused by immune escape. Natural killer (NK) cells play an important role against virally infected cell...
