自身"免疫系统"知多少?

　　Biron: They really make a difference between health and disease, early on. They can help kill, or directly kill, virus-infected cells. But they also can have important roles in translating the information that there is an infection going on to other players, other cells in the immune system.

　　拜伦：“自然杀伤细胞”的确可以在疾病早期发挥作用让机体恢复健康，它们可以帮助杀死—或直接杀死— 被病毒感染的细胞。另外，它们可以向免疫系统其他成员——其他细胞传达身体正在发生感染的信息，这是它们另一项非常重要的工作。

　　Biron said medicines can now be developed to let natural killer cells optimize our immune response in the face of chronic infections like HIV/AIDS or herpes.

　　拜伦说，当前我们可以开发药物来让“自然杀伤细胞”在面对诸如艾滋病毒/ 艾滋病或疱疹等慢性感染时将免疫反应优化。
