Fig. 2From: Human U87 glioblastoma cells with stemness features display enhanced sensitivity to natural killer cell cytotoxicity through altered expression of NKG2D ligandComparison of the percentage of NK cells characterized by CD107a+ phenotype. a The purity of expanded NK cells were evaluated upon immunostaining as CD3−CD56+ cells and the percentage of CD107a+ NK cells were assessed by flow cytometry in both NBE U87 cells and serum U87 cells. b Serum U87 cells showed higher fraction of CD107a+ NK cells than NBE U87 cells did. Bar graphs show the mean ± the standard error of the mean (SEM). (*P < 0.05)Back to article page
