Transcriptional control of natural killer cell antitumor activity Natural killer (NK) cells protect from viral infection, cancer, and metastasis, and are emerging as valuable therapeutics for cancer treatment. NK-cell control of viral infection has been studied intensively, but less is known in the context of cancer. Multiple associative, preclinical, and early phase clinical studies have revealed the ability of NK-cell-based therapies to contribute to cancer control. Development of effective NK-cell therapeutics will be facilitated by a deeper understanding of the mechanisms controlling NK cell function across an array of cancer types and states. This review will focus on recent studies of the transcription factors that control NK cell function and their response to leukemia, solid tumors, and metastasis.
