Rat Spleen Dendritic Cells Express Natural Killer Cell Receptor Protein 1 (NKR-P1) and Have Cytotoxic Activity to Select Targets via a Ca2+-dependent Mechanism
Dendritic cells (DC) are a subset of leukocytes whose major function is antigen presentation. We investigated the phenotype and function of enriched (95–98.5%) rat DC. We show that both spleen and thymus DC express the natural killer cell receptor protein 1 (NKR-P1) as a disulfide linked homodimer o...
