Effector Functions of Natural Killer Cell Subsets in the Control of Hematological Malignancies. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Treatment of hematological malignant disorders has been improved over the last years, but high relapse rate mainly attributable to the presence of minimal residual disease still persists.

KIR Gene and KIR Ligand Analysis to Predict Graft Rejection After Renal Transplantation [PDF]

open access: yesTransplantation, 2007
The identification of transplant patients at high risk for rejection after reduction of immunosuppression would allow minimization of immunosuppression and avoidance of side effects in low-risk patients. Next to T cells, innate natural killer (NK) cells may contribute to graft rejection.

Long‐lasting remodeling of astrocytes in an Scna1+/− mouse model of Dravet syndrome

open access: yesEpilepsia, EarlyView.
Abstract Objective Dravet syndrome (DS) is a prototypical developmental and epileptic encephalopathy caused by mutations in the SCN1A gene, leading to loss of function of the voltage‐gated sodium channel Naᵥ1.1. The latter causes early onset drug‐resistant seizures and enduring cognitive and behavioral deficits.

The Role and Therapeutic Potential of Voltage‐Gated Potassium Channel Kv1.3 in Metabolism‐Related Disorders

open access: yesiNew Medicine, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Over the past three decades, the global burden of common metabolic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, and atherosclerosis has steadily increased, becoming a serious public health issue that poses a major threat to human health worldwide. Potassium channels, particularly the voltage‐gated Kv1.3 subtype, serve as critical regulators of cellular

Neuronal activity regulates neurotransmitter switching in the adult brain following light-induced stress. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Neurotransmitter switching in the adult mammalian brain occurs following photoperiod-induced stress, but the mechanism of regulation is unknown. Here, we demonstrate that elevated activity of dopaminergic neurons in the paraventricular nucleus of the ...

KIR And HLA Haplotype Analysis in a Family Lacking The KIR 2DL1-2DP1 Genes

open access: yesBalkan Journal of Medical Genetics, 2015
The killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene cluster exhibits extensive allelic and haplotypic diversity that is observed as presence/absence of genes, resulting in expansion and contraction of KIR haplotypes and by allelic variation of ...

Impact of the Variable Killer Ig-Like Receptor–Human Leukocyte Antigen Interactions on Natural Killer Cell Cytotoxicity Toward Foreign CD4 T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
BackgroundNatural killer (NK) cells are known to mount a response against foreign target cells, where the absence of the dominant inhibitory killer Ig-like receptor (KIR)–human leukocyte antigen (HLA) interaction immensely lowers the threshold for NK ...

Haplotype-Based Analysis of KIR-Gene Profiles in a South European Population—Distribution of Standard and Variant Haplotypes, and Identification of Novel Recombinant Structures

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Inhibitory Killer-cell Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (KIR) specific for HLA class I molecules enable human natural killer cells to monitor altered antigen presentation in pathogen-infected and tumor cells.

Chronic Liver Disease: Assessing Inflammation and Fibrosis Using Three‐Dimensional MR Elastography With Same‐Day Biopsy in a Prospective Cohort

open access: yesJournal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Three‐dimensional (3D) MR elastography (MRE) derives viscoelastic parameters that may reflect inflammation, but their frequency dependence and the influence of steatosis on inflammation grading and fibrosis staging remain unclear. Purpose To investigate 3D multifrequency MRE for assessing hepatic inflammation, fibrosis stage across ...

Alpine flora of Kashmir Himalaya: floristic assessment, life history traits and threat status

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Alpine ecosystems in the Himalaya are considered to be at a higher risk to anthropogenic global change drivers. The Kashmir Himalaya, located in the north‐western side of the Himalayan biodiversity hotspot, harbors a diverse alpine flora, which remains systematically little investigated.
