Characterisation of CD8neg and CD8+ human natural killer cell subsets [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
NK cells are CD3neg CD56+ lymphocytes that constitute about 10-15% of peripheral blood lymphocytes. They have an innate ability to recognise and kill virus infected cells and tumour cells.

Infections, Reactions of Natural Killer T Cells and Natural Killer Cells, and Kidney Injury [PDF]

open access: yesInternational 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]

open access: yesNature 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]

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.

T cell regulation of natural killer cells [PDF]

open access: yesJournal 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]

open access: yesInternational 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.

Characterisation of T cell defects in acute myeloid leukaemia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
PhDUnderstanding the immune system in patients with cancer and how it interacts with malignant cells is critical for the development of successful immunotherapeutic strategies at a time when novel cancer treatment approaches are required.

Natural killer cells promote early CD8 T cell responses against cytomegalovirus. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Understanding the mechanisms that help promote protective immune responses to pathogens is a major challenge in biomedical research and an important goal for the design of innovative therapeutic or vaccination strategies.

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

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 ...

Natural Killer T Cell Diversity and Immunotherapy

open access: yesCancers, 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.
