T-BET and EOMES Accelerate and Enhance Functional Differentiation of Human Natural Killer Cells

T-BET and EOMES Accelerate and Enhance Functional Differentiation of Human Natural Killer Cells

T-bet and Eomes are transcription factors that are known to be important in maturation and function of murine natural killer (NK) cells. Reduced T-BET and EOMES expression results in dysfunctional NK cells and failure to control tumor growth. In contrast to mice, the current knowledge on the role of...
