Infections, Reactions of Natural Killer T Cells and Natural Killer Cells, and Kidney Injury [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2022 Natural killer T (NKT) cells and NK cells are representative innate immune cells that perform antitumor and antimicrobial functions. The involvement of these cells in various renal diseases, including acute kidney injury (AKI), has recently become evident.

Targeting natural killer cells and natural killer T cells in cancer [PDF]
Nature Reviews Immunology, 2012 Natural killer (NK) cells and natural killer T (NKT) cells are subsets of lymphocytes that share some phenotypical and functional similarities. Both cell types can rapidly respond to the presence of tumour cells and participate in antitumour immune responses. This has prompted interest in the development of innovative cancer therapies that are based on

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

T cell regulation of natural killer cells [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2013 In light of their role in the immune response against tumors and viruses, natural killer (NK) cells represent a promising target for immunotherapy. Before this target is reached, the various mechanisms that control NK cell activity must first be identified and understood.

Roles of Natural Killer T Cells and Natural Killer Cells in Kidney Injury [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019 Mouse natural killer T (NKT) cells and natural killer (NK) cells are innate immune cells that are highly abundant in the liver. In addition to their already-known antitumor and antimicrobial functions, their pathophysiological roles in the kidney have recently become evident.

Natural Killer T Cell Diversity and Immunotherapy
Cancers, 2023 Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKTs), a type of unconventional T cells, share features with NK cells and have an invariant T cell receptor (TCR), which recognizes lipid antigens loaded on CD1d molecules, a major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I)-like protein.

Natural Killer/T cell primary extranasal ileum lymphoma
Revista Peruana de Medicina Experimental y Salud Pública, 2020 Primary extranodal Natural Killer / T cell lymphoma (NKTL) on gastrointestinal tract is an uncommon and aggressive neoplasm. We present the case of a 51-year-old immunocompetent patient with a 2-month history of abdominal pain.

Natural killer and natural killer T cells in liver fibrosis
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Molecular Basis of Disease, 2013 The liver lymphocyte population is enriched with natural killer (NK) cells, which play a key role in host defense against viral infection and tumor transformation. Recent evidence from animal models suggests that NK cells also play an important role in inhibiting liver fibrosis by selectively killing early or senescence activated hepatic stellate cells

Immunoregulation of Autoimmunity by Natural Killer T Cells [PDF]
Human Immunology, 2005 Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a conserved subpopulation of lymphocytes that recognize glycolipid antigens in a CD1d context. Upon activation through their semi-invariant T cell receptor, these cells rapidly release large amounts of immunomodulating Th1 and Th2 cytokines.
