NK Cell Isolation from Liver Biopsies: Phenotypic and Functional Analysis of Low Cell Numbers by Flow Cytometry

Natural killer (NK) cells are considered to play a critical role in liver disease. However, the available numbers of intrahepatic lymphocytes (IHL) derived from liver biopsies (LB) for ex vivo analysis of intrahepatic NK cells is very limited; and the isolation method may hamper not only yields and...
