naturliga mördarceller (NK-celler) [SWEDISH]

Celler som har spontan cytotoxisk verkan mot en rad tumörceller utan föregående immunisering. De förekommer hos icke-immuna människor och försöksdjur och betraktas av somliga som mördarceller (med antikroppsberoende celltoxisk effekt), men de kan även döda utan närvaro av antikroppar.
