Main text
In their letter to Immunity, Degli-Esposti and colleagues1 discuss the potential origins of tissue-resident natural killer (trNK) cells and the inflammatory contexts enabling their differentiation. These largely unresolved issues are relevant for NK-based cellular therapies and our understanding of tissue immunity. Here, we examine key complementarities and differences between their work and our recent work,2 highlighting future challenges and open research questions.TrNK cells are found in a
期刊介绍:
Immunity is a publication that focuses on publishing significant advancements in research related to immunology. We encourage the submission of studies that offer groundbreaking immunological discoveries, whether at the molecular, cellular, or whole organism level. Topics of interest encompass a wide range, such as cancer, infectious diseases, neuroimmunology, autoimmune diseases, allergies, mucosal immunity, metabolic diseases, and homeostasis.
