Regulation of natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity by serine/threonine phosphatases: identification of a calyculin A-sensitive serine/threonine kinase.
We have recently reported that Ser/Thr phosphatases play a key role in regulating natural killer (NK) cell lytic activity and that calyculin A and okadaic acid affect this activity differently [Bajpai and Brahmi (1994) J. Biol. Chem. 269, 18864-18869]. Here, we investigate a mechanism that might account for this differential action of calyculin A and okadaic acid on NK cells. Calyculin A specif...
متن کاملFunctional Role for Syk Tyrosine Kinase in Natural Killer Cell–mediated Natural Cytotoxicity
Natural killer (NK) cells are named based on their natural cytotoxic activity against a variety of target cells. However, the mechanisms by which sensitive targets activate killing have been difficult to study due to the lack of a prototypic NK cell triggering receptor. Pharmacologic evidence has implicated protein tyrosine kinases (PTKs) in natural killing; however, Lck-deficient, Fyn-deficien...
متن کاملSurgical stress-mediated suppression of murine natural killer cell cytotoxicity.
Natural killer cell-mediated cytotoxicity (NKCC) is one of several possible immune defense mechanisms that may protect against the development of solid-tumor metastases. We have demonstrated that in vitro NKCC can be significantly impaired by both surgical stress and progressive tumor burden. Female C57BL/6 mice received a hindfoot amputation under anesthesia with Nembutal i.p. Twenty-four hr l...

متن کاملNatural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity Against SKOV3 after HLA-G Downregulation by shRNA
Background: HLA-G is a nonclassical HLA class I molecule which, when elevated in tumor cells, is one of the main factors involved in tumor evasion of immune responses including NK and T cells. Objective: To evaluate the effect of HLA-G downregulation on NK cell cytotoxicity in tumor cell lines. Methods: The expression level of HLA-G was measured by real-time PCR and flowcytometry after transfec...
