自然杀伤细胞
自然殺手細胞(英語:)是一種細胞質中具有大顆粒的细胞,簡稱NK细胞(),也稱作大顆粒淋巴細胞(LGL, Large Granular Lymphocytes)。由骨髓淋巴样干细胞發育而成,其分化、发育依赖于骨髓或胸腺微环境,主要分布于外周血和脾脏,在淋巴结和其他组织中也有少量存在。因為其非專一性的細胞毒殺作用而被命名。沒有T細胞與B細胞所具的受體,不會進行受體的基因重組(B細胞、T細胞的V(D)J重組,以及B細胞的超突變)。但仍具有一些特殊受體,稱為“殺傷細胞免疫球蛋白樣受體”,可以活化或抑制其作用在血液中循環,但也在骨髓,脾臟、淋巴結中出現,約佔所有淋巴球的細胞的5~10%,但它可以消滅許多種病原體及多種腫瘤細胞。自然殺手細胞會直接和陌生細胞接觸,並以細胞膜破裂之方式殺死此細胞,可利用分泌穿孔素及腫瘤壞死因子,摧毀目標細胞。

一般认为在外周血单个核细胞(PBMC)中分选到CD56+/CD3-的细胞即为NK细胞。
