immune system
• cultured tamoxifen-treated DN1, DN2, and DN3 thymocytes differentiate into natural killer-like cells and kill stromal feeder cells unlike similarly treated wild-type thymocytes
• cultured spleen and thymus cells treated with tamoxifen exhibit differentiation into induced T to natural killer cells (ITNK) unlike cells from similarly treated wild-type cells
• tamoxifen-treated thymocytes transplanted into Rag2 Il2rg null mice exhibit an increase in ITNK cells compared with mice transplanted with similarly treated wild-type mice

neoplasm
• reprogrammed induced T to natural killer cells (ITNK) transplanted into Rag2 Il2rg null suppress metastasis of transplanted B16F10 melanoma cells
