Laboratory assay overview

The function of natural killer cells in the immune response is regulated by killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR). These receptors interact with class I HLA antigens on the cell surface to prevent or activate killing of the target cell. KIR genotyping may be useful in some stem cell transplants because KIR matching or mismatching can mediate a graft-versus-leukemia effect when the cancer cells are underexpressing HLA class I antigens.

Verify these ranges and sources

We compile every detail above directly from named laboratory directories and published clinical studies. Laboratories calculate standard reference intervals from the statistical distribution of tested populations for a specific assay method and demographic group, rather than setting universal optimal targets.

Always review your personal lab results with a licensed clinician, or track your lab history and health goals in Aumnivida.
