RAC2 inhibition enhances tumor sensitivity to NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity

open access: yesJournal for ImmunoTherapy of Cancer
Background Natural killer (NK) cells are recognized for their ability to kill tumor cells for tumor control, but tumor cells often develop resistance to evade NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity.

Continuously expanding CAR NK-92 cells display selective cytotoxicity against B-cell leukemia and lymphoma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background aims Natural killer (NK) cells can rapidly respond to transformed and stressed cells and represent an important effector cell type for adoptive immunotherapy.

Shaping Ti3C2 MXene Nanospheres for Precision Near‐Infrared Photothermal Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, we report producing spherical MXenes via fs laser fragmentation of Ti3C2 flakes in liquid medium. The nanoparticles demonstrated pronounced light absorption and high photothermal conversion efficiencies of 68% and 63% under heating with NIR‐I and NIR‐II lasers, respectively.

A novel NKp80-based strategy for universal identification of normal, reactive and tumor/clonal natural killer-cells in blood

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
PurposeNatural killer (NK) cells are traditionally identified by flow cytometry using a combination of markers (CD16/CD56/CD3), because a specific NK-cell marker is still missing.

PECULIARITIES OF NK CELLS DIFFERENTIATION: CD56dim AND CD56bright NK CELLS AT PREGNANCY AND IN NON-PREGNANT STATE

open access: yesМедицинская иммунология, 2017
Natural killer (NK) cells represent a lymphocyte subpopulation which is capable of contact cytolysis of virus-infected cells and tumor cells, being a source of cytokines which stimulate other immune cells and promote immune response.

Shedding of CD16 disassembles the NK cell immune synapse and boosts serial engagement of target cells

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2018
Natural Killer (NK) cells can engage multiple virally infected or tumor cells sequentially and deliver perforin for cytolytic killing of these targets.

Swelling‐Programmed Topographical Guidance for Dynamic Spheroid Self‐Assembly via a Mechanochemical Hydrogel Niche

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A swelling‐programmed micropatterned hydrogel guides adherent cells through a controlled transition from cell–matrix anchoring to cadherin‐mediated cell–cell compaction, enabling rapid assembly of high‐viability spheroids with defined size and morphology.

Natural killer cells as an initial defense against pathogens. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Natural killer (NK) cells serve as a crucial first line of defense against tumors and a diverse range of pathogens. Recognition of infection by NK cells is accomplished by the activation of receptors on the NK cell surface, which initiate NK cell ...

Biallelic mutations in IRF8 impair human NK cell maturation and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Human NK cell deficiencies are rare yet result in severe and often fatal disease, particularly as a result of viral susceptibility. NK cells develop from hematopoietic stem cells, and few monogenic errors that specifically interrupt NK cell development ...
