Historically, human NK cells have been identified as CD3-CD56+CD16+/- lymphocytes. More recently it has been established that CD57 expression defines functionally discrete subpopulations of NK cells. On T cells, CD57 expression has been regarded as a marker of terminal differentiation and (perhaps...
