NK Cells

Accuracy of natural killer cells data provided by gentle and streamlined processing

How Curiox Can Help

Retain higher levels of viable target immune cells
Consistent processing of samples
Superior data quality

Natural killer (NK) cells are a subset of lymphocytes that play a vital role in immune regulation, cancer immunosurveillance, and the recognition of viral-infected cells. In humans, NK cells represent a minor percent of all circulating lymphocytes. Given their critical role, NK cells are an important target for vaccine development, emerging cancer therapies, and diagnostics. Researchers are actively exploring the potential of NK cells as a therapeutic platform for cancer treatment, including the use of engineered NK cells as a form of adoptive immunotherapy.

The ability to pinpoint and isolate rare cellular populations is crucial for developing effective therapies. This requires monitoring key immune cells, such as NK cells, in the tumor microenvironment. These cells are often rare and hard to find, making it challenging to collect high-quality samples.

How Curiox Can Help

Curiox technologies can help overcome this hurdle by providing superior data quality and retaining higher levels of viable target immune cells. By bypassing the centrifuge, Curiox Laminar Wash and C-FREE systems help ensure consistent and accurate processing of samples, giving scientists the confidence they need to make data-driven decisions.

Studies have shown that Curiox Laminar Wash systems have helped to successfully identify biomarkers and predict cell manufacturing success. Its precision and reliability are helping to advance cancer research and pave the way for more effective treatments.
