Redefining Memory: Building the Case for Adaptive NK Cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Virology, 2017
ABSTRACTClassically, natural killer (NK) cells have been defined by nonspecific innate killing of virus-infected and tumor cells. However, burgeoning evidence suggests that the functional repertoire of NK cells is far more diverse than has been previously appreciated, thus raising the possibility that there may be unexpected functional specialization ...

Cell-intrinsic adrenergic signaling controls the adaptive NK cell response to viral infection

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Medicine, 2020
Natural killer (NK) cells are critical for protection against viruses. Diaz-Salazar et al. show that adrenergic neurons modulate the adaptive NK cell response in a cell-intrinsic manner.

Adaptive NK cells can persist in patients with GATA2 mutation depleted of stem and progenitor cells.

open access: yesBlood, 2017
Key Points GATA-2 expression is restricted to hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells, leading to NK-cell progenitor deficiency in GATA2 patients.

Adaptive NK cells undergo a dynamic modulation in response to human cytomegalovirus and recruit T cells in in vitro migration assays

open access: yesBone Marrow Transplantation, 2022
Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) reactivation remains a relevant complication after hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) despite the great progress made in prophylaxis and treatment.

Selective Expansion of NKG2C+ Adaptive NK Cells Using K562 Cells Expressing HLA-E

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022
Adaptive natural killer (NK) cells expressing self-specific inhibitory killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) can be expanded in vivo in response to human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) infection.

Adaptive Subsets Limit the Anti-Tumoral NK-Cell Activity in Hepatocellular Carcinoma

open access: yesCells, 2021
Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is a global health burden with increasing incidence, poor prognosis and limited therapeutic options. Natural killer (NK) cells exhibit potent anti-tumoral activity and therefore represent potential targets for ...

The Frequency and Function of NKG2C+CD57+ Adaptive NK Cells in Cytomagalovirus Co-Infected People Living with HIV Decline with Duration of Antiretroviral Therapy

open access: yesViruses, 2023
Human cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection drives the expansion and differentiation of natural killer (NK) cells with adaptive-like features. We investigated whether age and time on antiretroviral therapy (ART) influenced adaptive NK cell frequency and ...

Single-cell profiling identifies impaired adaptive NK cells expanded after HCMV reactivation in haploidentical HSCT

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2021
Haploidentical hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (h-HSCT) represents an efficient curative approach for patients affected by hematologic malignancies in which the reduced intensity conditioning induces a state of immunologic tolerance between donor

NK Cell-Mediated Recall Responses: Memory-Like, Adaptive, or Antigen-Specific?

open access: yesFrontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2020
Mounting experimental evidence hints to an import role for natural killer (NK) cells in adaptive immune responses to pathogens. NK cells with adaptive features are heterogeneous and belong to different subsets according to their phenotype as well as the ...

Natural Killer Cell Responses during Human γ-Herpesvirus Infections

open access: yesVaccines, 2021
Herpesviruses are main sculptors of natural killer (NK) cell repertoires. While the β-herpesvirus human cytomegalovirus (CMV) drives the accumulation of adaptive NKG2C-positive NK cells, the human γ-herpesvirus Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) expands early ...
