MICB Allele Genotyping on Microarrays by Improving the Specificity of Extension Primers. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I chain-related gene B (MICB) encodes a ligand for activating NKG2D that expressed in natural killer cells, γδ T cells, and αβ CD8+ T cells, which is associated with autoimmune diseases, cancer, and infectious

Stress-induced MICA and MICB molecules in oncology [PDF]

open access: yesМедицинская иммунология, 2022
MICA and MICB molecules, MHC class I chain-related proteins, are expressed on the membranes of damaged, transformed or infected cells. These glycoproteins bind to the NKG2D receptor of NK cells, resulting in their activation and cytotoxic response ...

Genetic Association Studies of MICB and PLCE1 with Severity of Dengue in Indonesian and Taiwanese Populations

open access: yesDiagnostics, 2023
Dengue is an arboviral disease that has spread globally and become a major public health concern. A small proportion of patients may progress from symptomatic dengue fever (DF) to dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF) or dengue shock syndrome (DSS).

Circulating levels of soluble MICB in infants with symptomatic primary dengue virus infections. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Dengue is the most prevalent arthropod-borne viral illness in humans. A MHC class I polypeptide-related sequence B (MICB) single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) was previously associated with symptomatic dengue compared to non-dengue causes of acute ...

Polymorphism rs3828903 within MICB Is Associated with Susceptibility to Systemic Lupus Erythematosus in a Northern Han Chinese Population

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2016
Objectives. The variant rs3828903 within MICB, a nonclassical MHC class I chain-related gene, was detected to contribute to systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in a Caucasian population.

Genetic variants of MICB and PLCE1 and associations with the laboratory features of dengue [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Infectious Diseases, 2017
Background A previous genome-wide association study identified 2 susceptibility loci for severe dengue at MICB rs3132468 and PLCE1 rs3740360 and further work showed these mutations to be also associated with less severe clinical presentations. The aim of

Causal associations of MICB, CTSA, and MMP9 proteins with oral cancer: Mendelian randomization study

open access: yesScientific Reports
Oral cancer (ORCA) is the most prevalent histological subtype of oral malignancies in which immune modulation is relevant. The goal of this work was to employ Mendelian randomization (MR) to investigate the causal connection between the immune-related ...

A Novel MICB-Targeting CAR-NK Cells for the Treatment of Pancreatic Cancer. [PDF]

open access: yesInt J Mol Sci
MICB-targeting CAR-NK (chimeric antigen receptor-modified natural killer cells) therapy may serve as off-the-shelf immunotherapy. We designed soluble Anti-MICB-scFv blocks tumor immune evasion targeting the MICB antigen, thereby enhancing CAR-NK ...
