Impact of NKG2D Signaling on Natural Killer and T‐Cell Function in Cerebral Ischemia

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Typically defined as a thromboinflammatory disease, ischemic stroke features early and delayed inflammatory responses, which determine the extent of ischemia‐related brain damage.

Stress-induced in vivo recruitment of human cytotoxic natural killer cells favors subsets with distinct receptor profiles and associates with increased epinephrine levels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Acute stress drives a 'high-alert' response in the immune system. Psychoactive drugs induce distinct stress hormone profiles, offering a sought-after opportunity to dissect the in vivo immunological effects of acute stress in humans.

Efficient lysis of rhabdomyosarcoma cells by cytokine-induced killer cells : implications for adoptive immunotherapy after allogeneic stem cell transplantation

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Rhabdomyosarcoma is the most common soft tissue sarcoma in childhood and has a poor prognosis. Here we assessed the capability of ex vivo expanded cytokine-induced killer cells to lyse both alveolar and embryonic rhabdomyosarcoma cell lines ...

Immunometabolic Activation of Invariant Natural Killer T Cells

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are lipid-reactive T cells with profound immunomodulatory potential. They are unique in their restriction to lipid antigens presented in CD1d molecules, which underlies their role in lipid-driven disorders such as ...

Natural killer cell evolution: cellular and molecular studies on Xenopus [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
The presence of natural killer cells at lower evolutionary levels was investigated in the amphibian Xenopus laevis. Chromium release microcytotoxicity assays revealed that fresh splenocytes from early-thymectomised Xenopus displayed significant ...

The role of natural killer cells in adaptive immune responses [PDF]

open access: yes
Human natural killer (NK) cells have been shown to respond to numerous pathogenic stimuli, producing IFN-y as well as cytolytic effector molecules such as perforin and granzymes.

Recognition of Human Histocompatibility Leukocyte Antigen (HLA)-E Complexed with HLA Class I Signal Sequence–derived Peptides by D94/NKG2 Confers Protection from Natural Killer Cell–mediated Lysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
Human histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-E is a nonclassical HLA class I molecule, the gene for which is transcribed in most tissues. It has recently been reported that this molecule binds peptides derived from the signal sequence of HLA class I ...

Three phosphatase families form a community: The phosphohydrolases that act upon inositol pyrophosphates

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Inositol pyrophosphates are energy‐rich signaling molecules that perform critical functions in cells. Three different families of phosphatases hydrolyze the β phosphate of the inositol pyrophosphate molecules: two have narrow specificities and one is promiscuous.

Characterisation and ontogeny of natural killer cells in Xenopus laevis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
The initial aim of the work described in this Thesis was to investigate the lymphoid organ distribution, phenotype and function of the lymphocyte population identified by candidate anti-Xenopus natural killer (NK) cell monoclonal antibodies (mAb's ...

Interrogating the immune landscape of microsatellite stable RAS‐mutated colon cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
COLOSSUS project RAS‐mutated MSS colon cancer study explored transcriptomics and immune cell density by immunohistochemistry (IHC), Immunoscore (IS), ISIC/TuLIS scores, mutation counts, and detected different prevalences but similar microenvironment composition across immune markers with clinical relevance for future immunotherapy combination ...
