Natural killer cell in the development and treatment of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma [PDF]

open access: yesYixue xinzhi zazhi, 2021
Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) is one of the most common malignant tumors in the world. It has a high metastasis rate and a poor prognosis.

Natural killer cell immunotherapy in glioblastoma

open access: yesDiscover Oncology, 2022
Glioblastoma (GBM) is one of the most difficult cancers to treat because GBM has the high therapeutic resistance. Recently, immunotherapies for GBM have been used instead of conventional treatments.

Natural Killer Cells Generated From Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Mature to CD56brightCD16+NKp80+/-In-Vitro and Express KIR2DL2/DL3 and KIR3DL1

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
The differentiation of human induced pluripotent stem cells (hiPSCs) into T and natural killer (NK) lymphocytes opens novel possibilities for developmental studies of immune cells and in-vitro generation of cell therapy products.

NKG2A and circulating extracellular vesicles are key regulators of natural killer cell activity in prostate cancer after prostatectomy

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, 2023
Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are an important regulatory factor for natural killer cell activity (NKA) in the tumor microenvironment. The relationship between circulating EVs in the peripheral blood and natural killer (NK) cells in prostate cancer (PCa ...

Natural Killer Cell Integrins and Their Functions in Tissue Residency

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Integrins are transmembrane receptors associated with adhesion and migration and are often highly differentially expressed receptors amongst natural killer cell subsets in microenvironments.

Natural Killer Cells Suppress T Cell-Associated Tumor Immune Evasion

open access: yesCell Reports, 2019
Summary: Despite the clinical success of cancer immunotherapies, the majority of patients fail to respond or develop resistance through disruption of pathways that promote neo-antigen presentation on MHC I molecules.

Functional crosstalk and regulation of natural killer cells in tumor microenvironment: Significance and potential therapeutic strategies

open access: yesGenes and Diseases, 2023
Natural killer (NK) cells eliminate a large variety of tumor cells and abnormal cells. However, NK cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are often functionally depleted. A few subsets of NK cells even promote tumor growth.

Short communication: NKG2C+ NK cells contribute to increases in CD16+CD56- cells in HIV type 1+ individuals with high plasma viral load. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Chronic HIV-1 infection results in the expansion of both NKG2C+ and CD16+CD56- human natural killer cells. NKG2C+ cells proliferate in response to human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) and expansion of the dysfunctional CD56-CD16+ natural killer (NK) cells is ...

Altered distribution of mucosal NK cells during HIV infection. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The human gut mucosa is a major site of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection and infection-associated pathogenesis. Increasing evidence shows that natural killer (NK) cells have an important role in control of HIV infection, but the mechanism(s ...

Identification of Anti-tumor Cells Carrying Natural Killer (NK) Cell Antigens in Patients With Hematological Cancers

open access: yesEBioMedicine, 2015
Natural killer (NK) cells, a cytotoxic lymphocyte lineage, are able to kill tumor cells in vitro and in mouse models. However, whether these cells display an anti-tumor activity in cancer patients has not been demonstrated.
