microRNA expression signatures for human primary NK cells. Homo sapiens

We examined miRNA profiles of human NK cells from different cell compartments (peripheral blood, cord blood, and uterine deciduas) and of NKT and T cells from peripheral blood, and identified distinct classes of up-regulated microRNAs in different human NK cells. Overall design: For the microarray assay, RNAs from 6 donors with equal amount were pooled together to get each cell sample.
