Gating strategy for adaptive NK cells. Lymphocytes were identified based on their forward scatter (FCS) and side scatter (SSC) characteristics, defining NK cells as CD3(–) CD56(+) lymphocytes. Representative examples were selected based on the expression of adaptive NK cell markers, showing a case with a low expression of the three adaptive markers (MS.01), a case with low NKG2C(+), FcRγ(–), and PLZF(–) expression in CD56dim NK cells but with a higher proportions of PLZF(–) CD56bright NK cells (HC.01), and a case with higher proportions of NKG2C(+), FcRγ(–), and PLZF(–) CD56dim NK cells.
