I have a couple of questions regarding primary NK cell isolation from human peripheral blood:
What is the practical yield of NK cell isolation from human blood?
(for instance using the Miltenyi Biotec MACS NK cell isolation kit)
Is it possible to expand these cells in culture? Does anyone have any protocols? How long will primary NK cells stay alive in culture?
Is there any cell line of human NK cells for NK activation, cytotoxicity and functional studies?
Many thanks in advance!
