Uterine Natural Killer Cells [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
Natural killer (NK) cells are members of a rapidly expanding family of innate lymphoid cells (ILCs). While most previously studied NK cells were derived from the mouse spleen and circulate in the blood, recently others and we found tissue-resident NK (trNK) cells in many tissues that resemble group 1 ILCs (ILC1s).

Natural killer cells and natural killer T cells in Lyme arthritis [PDF]

open access: yesArthritis Research & Therapy, 2013
Abstract Introduction Natural killer (NK) and natural killer T (NKT) cells provide a first line of defense against infection. However, these cells have not yet been examined in patients with Lyme arthritis, a late disease manifestation. Lyme arthritis usually resolves with antibiotic treatment.

Current landscape of clinical use of ex vivo expanded natural killer cells for cancer therapy [PDF]

open access: yesEinstein (São Paulo)
Natural Killer cells are immune leukocytes required for responses against tumor cells and virus-infected cells. In the last decade, natural killer cells have emerged as promising tools in cancer therapy, and clinical studies on patients treated with ...

Natural killer cells [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 1999
Perhaps, but probably not a long or healthy life. There is only one documented human case of an absolute NK cell deficiency, which was associated with recurrent life-threatening bacterial and viral infections.

Expression of ligands for activating natural killer cell receptors on cell lines commonly used to assess natural killer cell function

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2019
Background Natural killer cell responses to virally-infected or transformed cells depend on the integration of signals received through inhibitory and activating natural killer cell receptors.

In vivo generation of decidual natural killer cells from resident hematopoietic progenitors

open access: yesHaematologica, 2014
Decidual natural killer cells accumulate at the fetal-maternal interface and play a key role in a successful pregnancy. However, their origin is still unknown.

Evasion of NK cell immune surveillance via the vimentin-mediated cytoskeleton remodeling

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Cancer immunotherapy uses the immune system to achieve therapeutic effects; however, its effect is still limited. Therefore, in addition to immune checkpoint-based treatment, the development of other strategies that can inhibit cancer cells from ...

SnapShot: Natural Killer Cells

open access: yesCell, 2020
NK cells are broadly distributed innate lymphoid cells (ILCs) encompassing distinct populations based on CD11b and CD27 expression in mice or CD56 intensity in humans. Involved in anti-viral and anti-tumor immunity thanks to their cytokines and chemokines secretion as well as their cytotoxic capabilities, NK cells have emerged as a promising ...
