The CD16/56 Count is a group of blood tests that measures the quantity and percentage of natural killer (NK) cells in your body, which play a key role in immune defense against infections and tumors.
Understanding CD16/56 Count
Natural killer (NK) cells are a type of lymphocyte critical to the body's innate immune system.
The CD16/56 Count helps evaluate the status and distribution of these cells, which can be disrupted in certain diseases, including cancers, chronic infections, and immune disorders. NK cells are identified by specific surface markers (CD16 and CD56) and can be altered in conditions like organ transplants, immune deficiencies, tumors, and female infertility (which may be associated in selected clinical contexts).
