Abstract:
Natural killer (NK) cells are potential immune components against hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after curative hepatectomy. Patients at high risk of HCC recurrence can be identified by quantifying NK cell licensing. Therefore, therapeutic strategies that manipulate NK cell activity may possibly improve the prognosis of HCC patients.
