Antibody Fc receptor CD16a mediates natural killer cell activation via mechanotransduction of piconewton forces

Natural Killer(NK) cells eliminate target cells through antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity(ADCC), initiated by CD16a(FcγRIIIa) recognizing the Fc region of antibodies bound to the target cell surface. While the recognition is considered to be driven by CD16a-Fc binding...
