Degranulation enhances presynaptic membrane packing, which protects NK cells from perforin-mediated autolysis

Natural killer (NK) cells kill a target cell by secreting perforin into the lytic immunological synapse, a specialized interface formed between the NK cell and its target. Perforin creates pores in target cell membranes allowing delivery of proapoptotic enzymes. Despite the fact that secreted perfor...
