Effect of CD38+ NK and CD38+ NK-like T cells on lymphocyte subtypes and cytokine secretion in MNCs from synovial fluids. CD38+ NK cells, CD38+ NK-like T cells, and MNCs were collected from RA synovial fluids. a Illustration of coculture of CD38+ NK cells or CD38+ NK-like T cells with MNCs depleted of CD16+ CD56+ CD38+ cells. b Effects of CD38+ NK cells and CD38+ NK-like T cells on lymphocyte subtypes in synovial MNCs. c Effects of CD38+ NK cells and CD38+ NK-like T cells on cytokine secretion in the coculture medium. *Represents a p value <0.05, **<0.01, and ***<0.001. RA, rheumatoid arthritis; MNCs, mononuclear cells.
