In depth characterization of human CMV-driven adaptive NK cells through mass spectrometry and flow cytometry analyses

, 2023
Human Natural killer (NK) cells are a population of innate lymphocytes, usually short-lived and rapidly responding against viral infections and tumors. However, upon cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, NK cells reveal unexpected adaptive traits typical of T

Killing of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus-infected fibroblasts during latent infection by activated natural killer cells. [PDF]

, 2011
Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) establishes life-long infection by evading clearance by the host immune system. In de novo infection and lytic replication, KSHV escapes cytotoxic T cells and NK cells through downregulation of MHC class-I ...

Light‐Induced Field‐Tunneling Synapses in Solution‐Processed Van Der Waals Heterostructures for Scalable, Retina‐Inspired Optical Sensing

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A scalable, solution‐processed WSe2/ZrO2‐x van der Waals heterostructure realizes a light‐induced field‐tunneling synapse (LIFTS) that activates exclusively under bright illumination, emulating the photopic adaptation of the human retina at the device level.

Splenic TNF-α signaling potentiates the innate-to-adaptive transition of antiviral NK cells

Immunity
Summary Natural killer (NK) cells possess both innate and adaptive features. Here we investigated NK cell activation across tissues during cytomegalovirus infection, which generates antigen-specific clonal expansion and long-lived memory responses ...

The crosstalk between Dendritic and Natural Killer cells together with the function of Tumor Associated Macrophages (TAM) represent novel cancer-related targets for Human Immunodeficiency Type-1 Protease Inhibitors [PDF]

, 2009
Inflammatory conditions and infections in selected organs increase the risk of cancer. In the tumor microenvironment, smoldering inflammation contributes to proliferation and survival of malignant cells, angiogenesis, metastasis and subversion of ...

An Integrated Oxygen‐Supplying Device and Predictive Multiphysics Model for Extended Ambient Transport of Insulin‐Producing Cells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Cell therapies typically rely on cold‐chain logistics and cryopreservation, limiting access and compromising cell quality. Here, a dual‐chamber device separates an oxygen‐supplying chamber from a hyaluronic acid cargo chamber, sustaining oxygen delivery for over 70 h and enabling ambient‐temperature shipment.

Natural Killer Cell Development and Maturation Revisited: Possible Implications of a Novel Distinct Lin−CD34+DNAM-1brightCXCR4+ Cell Progenitor

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Since the first description of natural killer (NK) cells, the view on their role in innate immunity has evolved considerably. In addition to first-line defense against transformed and pathogen-infected autologous cells, NK cells contribute to modulate ...

Stress-induced in vivo recruitment of human cytotoxic natural killer cells favors subsets with distinct receptor profiles and associates with increased epinephrine levels [PDF]

, 2015
Acute stress drives a 'high-alert' response in the immune system. Psychoactive drugs induce distinct stress hormone profiles, offering a sought-after opportunity to dissect the in vivo immunological effects of acute stress in humans.
