Biological function summary
These immune cells play an important defensive role by eliminating cells that might otherwise evade the adaptive immune response. NC cells achieve this through the release of cytotoxins that induce apoptosis in target cells. They are not known to be part of multi-protein complexes and their activity is largely independent acting through perforin and granzymes. Their function also overlaps with natural killer cells and they contribute to bridging innate and adaptive immunity due to their rapid response capabilities.
Pathways
Nonspecific cytotoxic cells engage with key immune-related pathways such as the innate immune response pathway and the apoptosis signaling pathway. In the innate immune response they interact with proteins such as perforin and granzymes which are important for their cytotoxic activity. The apoptosis signaling pathway involves these cytotoxins leading to the programmed cell death of target cells. Their role in these pathways highlights their importance in initial immune defense and regulation of cell survival.
