Abstract

In this issue of the European Journal of Immunology (EJI), Stewart et al. report about a population of γδ‐T cells expressing an extensive repertoire of NK cell receptors, and the presence of non‐rearranged germline TCRδ transcripts in conventional NK cells. These findings and other recent studies highlight the similarities of NK cells and T cells and the problems in discriminating between these two lineages.

## Abstract The present study was initiated to define the composition of the membrane proteome of the Natural Killer (NK) like cell line YTS. Isolated membranes were treated with reagents that have been reported to remove peripheral membrane proteins. Additional steps involving trifluoroethanol (TF

The last decade was dominated by dissemination of the notion that postnatal “mesenchymal stem cells,” found primarily in bone marrow but also in other tissues, can generate multiple skeletal and nonskeletal tissues, and thus can be exploited to regenerate a broad range of tissues and organs.

## Abstract Summary: The Cre‐__loxP__ system permits the generation of mouse models in which the fate of a cell can be followed through time. Such approach is of great value in immunology because it may allow lineage studies and the dissection of the contribution of specific effector T cells to lon
