The role of natural killer cells in chronic myeloid leukemia

open access: yesRevista Brasileira de Hematologia e Hemoterapia, 2011
Chronic myeloid leukemia is a neoplasia resulting from a translocation between chromosomes 9 and 22 producing the BCR-ABL hybrid known as the Philadelphia chromosome (Ph).

RAE-1 ligands for the NKG2D receptor are regulated by E2F transcription factors, which control cell cycle entry. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The NKG2D stimulatory receptor expressed by natural killer cells and T cell subsets recognizes cell surface ligands that are induced on transformed and infected cells and facilitate immune rejection of tumor cells.

Impaired cytotoxicity associated with defective natural killer cell differentiation in myelodysplastic syndromes

open access: yesHaematologica, 2015
Natural killer cells are well known to mediate anti-leukemic responses in myeloid leukemia but their role in myelodysplastic syndromes is not well understood.

Natural killer cell response to chemotherapy-stressed cancer cells: Role in tumor immunosurveillance. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Natural killer (NK) cells are innate cytotoxic lymphoid cells that actively prevent neoplastic development, growth, and metastatic dissemination in a process called cancer immunosurveillance.

Natural killer cell leukaemia

open access: yesBMJ Case Reports, 2009
A 42-year-old white woman, who was a general practitioner referral to the medical team, presented with a 3-day history of left upper quadrant pain; an urgent private ultrasound scan had showed splenomegaly. She was initially admitted with sepsis without an obvious cause but with a differential diagnosis of a haematological malignancy.

Favorable impact of natural killer cell reconstitution on chronic graft-versus-host disease and cytomegalovirus reactivation after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation

open access: yesHaematologica, 2014
Natural killer cells are the first lymphocyte subset to reconstitute, and play a major role in early immunity after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

Environmental stimuli shape microglial plasticity in glioma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In glioma, microglia and infiltrating macrophages are exposed to factors that force them to produce cytokines and chemokines, contributing to tumor growth and maintaining a pro-tumorigenic, immunosuppressed microenvironment.

Cytokine-induced killer cells are type II natural killer T cells

open access: yesGMS German Medical Science, 2007
Background: Until now, cytokine-induced killer (CIK) cells were assumed to be part of the type I natural killer T (NKT) cell population, but it was not yet investigated if this is correct.

Interferon therapy shifts natural killer subsets among egyptian patients with chronic hepatitis C

open access: yesBrazilian Journal of Infectious Diseases
Natural killer cells can be divided into five subpopulations based on the relative expression of CD16 and CD56 markers. The majority of natural killer cells are CD56dim, which are considered to be the main cytotoxic effectors.

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

open access: yesStem 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.
