<h4>Background</h4>Human natural killer (NK) cells are the key contributors of innate immune response and the effector functions of these cells are enhanced by cytokines such as interleukine 2 (IL2). We utilized genome-wide transcriptional profiling to identify gene expression signatures and pathways in resting and IL2 activated NK cell isolated from peripheral blood of healthy donors.<h4>Results</h4>Gene expression profiling of resting NK cells showed high expression of a number of cytotoxic fa ...[more]
