Abstract
Ligands for natural killer (NK) cell activating receptors can be released from tumor cells and are believed to promote tumor growth by acting as decoys for effector lymphocytes. In a recent paper published in Science, Deng et al. report another scenario in which a shed form of the MULT1 mouse NKG2D ligand boosts NK cell functions.Entities:
