Some researchers think it might increase the activity of "natural killer cells" in people who have cancer.

A controversial area is the presence of increased natural killer cells in the uterus.

It is produced in activated T-cells and natural killer cells.

Or a natural killer cell could be set next to a tumor cell to fight cancer.

The healthier carriers of the virus showed more active killer cells, according to the scientists.

And once they received that sort of signal, the killer cells became at least temporarily inactivated.

But last year scientists found that these killer cells were active in making mice immune to malaria.

It signals the body's own natural killer cells to attack the cancer cells.

The Qa-1b-peptide complex signals natural killer cells not to engage in cell lysis.

The result was a wave of killer cells.
