Cord Blood CD56+ Natural Killer Cells, Frozen

Human cord blood CD56+ NK cells are positively selected using immunomagnetic anti-CD56 microbeads from the mononuclear cell fraction. Isolated cells are characterized by flow cytometry prior to cryopreservation to ensure a highly pure and viable cell population.

Cells were obtained using Institutional Review Board (IRB) approved consent forms and protocols.

Since our founding in 2010, CGT Global has pursued our mission to transform healthcare as we accelerate cell and gene therapy research and clinical trials, streamline the commercialization of new treatments, and map the last mile to patient access to these life-changing remedies.  By innovating each stage in the cycle; development, commercialization, and delivery, we reduce the overall cost of the care and multiply access points so that millions can receive cutting edge, life-saving gene and cell therapies.

Description

Natural killer (NK) cells play a key role in the innate immune system. These effector lymphocytes react to certain infections and malignancies by directly destroying infected or transformed cells and by secretion of potent immune system cytokines that stimulate and guide other white blood cells to the target area. NK cells have the ability to recognize foreign or stressed cells that lack antibodies or major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I proteins on the surface. If not restrained by inhibitory receptors recognizing MHC class I proteins on the surface of self-cells, NK cells are able to kill normal, healthy cells.
