Killer Cell Immunoglobulin-Like Receptors Influence the Innate and Adaptive Immune Responses

Natural killer (NK) cells are a subset of lymphocytes which play a crucial role in early innate immune response against infection and tumor transformation. Furthermore, they secrete interferon-γ (IFN-γ) and tumor necrosis factor (TNF) prompting adaptive immu-nity. NK cells distinguish the unhealthy cells from the healthy ones through an array of cell-surface receptors. Human NK cells use inhibi...

SUSCEPTIBILITY OF HUMAN WM MELANOMA CELL LINES TO NK AND LAK CYTOTOXICITY AND THEIR RELEVANCE TO THE LEVEL OF MHC CLASS I AND ICAM-l ANTIGEN EXPRESSION

The effect of natural killer (NK) cells and lymphokine activated killer ( LAK) cells was studied on a group of human melanoma cell lines. Peripheral blood from healthy volunteers was utilized as a fresh source of natural killer cells and rhI L-2 for producing LAK cells. The cytotoxicity of effector cells was quantified using a 4 hour SI determining the density of antigen expression on tumor...

Natural 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...

بررسی رابطه بین ظاهر شدن مولکولهای کلاس HLA-I بر سطح یاخته‌های رده سرطانی و حساسیت به سلولهای کشنده طبیعی

ABSTRACT Natural Killer cells (NKs), are considered an important first line of defence and were originally defined by their ability to kill certain tumor cells and virally infected cells. Our aim is to study expression of HLA class-Ia on tumor cell lines and their susceptibility of NK cells. In this study MDA-MB-468 tumor cell line (NCB1, C208) That derived from human breast adenocarcino...

Activating natural killer (NK) cytotoxicity of canine CD5−CD21− cells requires low surface CD5 density NK cells

Natural killer (NK) cells play a crucial role in regulating immune functions. Few studies have characterized canine NK cells. We previously demonstrated that canine peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBLs) with a low surface CD5 density (CD5lo) are considered a critical NK population. Natural killer cells in most mammals do not express T-cell markers, but canine CD5lo cells express surface molecules...
