Abstract

The infusion of autograft immune effector cells directly impacts the clinical outcomes of patients treated with autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation, suggesting the possibility of an autologous graft-versus tumor cells. Furthermore, the early recovery of immune effector cells also affects survival post-autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. Natural killer cells are among the immune effector cells reported to be collected, infused, and recovered early post-autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. In this review, I attempt to give an update on the role of natural killer cells regarding improving survival outcomes on patients treated with autologous peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.
