Killers at the crossroads: The use of innate immune cells in adoptive cellular therapy of cancer

Stem Cells Translational Medicine, 2020
Adoptive cell therapy (ACT) is an approach to cancer treatment that involves the use of antitumor immune cells to target residual disease in patients after completion of chemo/radiotherapy.

The activating receptors 2B4 and NTB-A, but not CRACC are subject to ligand-induced down-regulation on human natural killer cells [PDF]

, 2010
Activation of natural killer cells can be mediated by different receptors. Stimulation of the receptors 2B4, NTB-A and CRACC, members of the SLAM-related receptor family, induces cytotoxicity and cytokine production.

Presence of the Transmembrane Protein Neuropilin in Cytokine-induced Killer Cells

Anticancer Research, 2020
Cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are a heterogenous population of immune cells showing promising applications in immunotherapeutic cancer treatment. Neuropilin (NRP) proteins have been proven to play an important role in cancer development and prognosis.

IL-2 stimulated but not unstimulated NK cells induce selective disappearance of peripheral blood cells: concomitant results to a phase I/II study [PDF]

, 2011
In an ongoing clinical phase I/II study, 16 pediatric patients suffering from high risk leukemia/tumors received highly purified donor natural killer (NK) cell immunotherapy (NK-DLI) at day (+3) +40 and +100 post haploidentical stem cell transplantation.

CD4+ T cells are required to improve the efficacy of CIK therapy in non-small cell lung cancer

Cell Death and Disease, 2022
Herein, Liu and colleagues show that CD4+ T cells in cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells are required to enhance the clinical efficacy of CIK therapy. In addition, CD4+ T cells help via IL-17A production is critical to restoring the function of CD8+/CD3 ...

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.

Cell-based Immunotherapy for Colorectal Cancer with Cytokine-induced Killer Cells [PDF]

Immune Network, 2016
Colorectal cancer is the third leading cancer worldwide. Although incidence and mortality of colorectal cancer are gradually decreasing in the US, patients with metastatic colorectal cancer have poor prognosis with an estimated 5-year survival rate of less than 10%.

Functional invariant natural killer T-cell and CD1d axis in chronic lymphocytic leukemia: implications for immunotherapy

Haematologica, 2013
Invariant natural killer T cells recognize glycolipid antigens such as α-galactosylceramide presented by CD1d. In preclinical models of B-cell malignancies, α-galactosylceramide is an adjuvant to tumor vaccination, enhancing tumor-specific T-cell ...
