Abstract

Cho and coworkers show that Ewing's sarcoma cells are highly sensitive to expanded allogeneic natural killer (NK) cells, partially through a NKG2D- and DNAM-1-dependent mechanism. Using an orthotopic murine model, they also show that irradiation significantly enhances the NK-cell killing of these tumors.
