TGF-β is responsible for NK cell immaturity during ontogeny and increased susceptibility to infection during mouse infancy
A major gap in our understanding of infant immunity is why natural killer (NK) cellresponses are deficient, making infants more prone to viral infection. Here we demonstrate that transforming growth factor-β (TGF-β) was responsible for NK cell immaturity during infancy. Higher numbers of fully matur...
