Comparative analysis of conventional natural killer cell responses to acute infection with Toxoplasma gondii strains of different virulence

Conventional Natural Killer Cells (cNK), members of group 1 innate lymphoid cells, are a diverse cell subpopulation based on surface receptor expression, maturation and functional potential. cNK cells are critical for early immunity to T. gondii via IFNγ production. Acute cNK cell responses to infec...
