Journal of Innate Immunity, 2021 Background: CD38+ NK (CD3− CD16+ CD38+ CD56+) cells were increased in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), which suppressed Treg cell differentiation. This study explored how CD38+ NK cells regulated CD4+ T-cell differentiation into Treg cells in RA.

Strategies to rescue mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) and dental pulp stem cells (DPSCs) from NK cell mediated cytotoxicity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 BACKGROUND: The aim of this paper is to study the function of allogeneic and autologous NK cells against Dental Pulp Stem Cells (DPSCs) and Mesenchymal Stem Cells (MSCs) and to determine the function of NK cells in a three way interaction with monocytes ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2023 Natural killer (NK) cells are cellular components of the innate immune system that can recognize and suppress the proliferation of cancer cells. NK cells can eliminate cancer cells through direct lysis, by secreting perforin and granzymes, or through ...

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2019 AbstractNatural Killer (NK) cells are important antiviral and anticancer effector cells. They have excellent potential for immunotherapy although impaired functions during cancer limit their effectiveness. The discovery that cellular metabolism can impact on and regulate immune functions has led to an explosion of articles in this new area of ...

A distinct subset of human NK cells expressing HLA-DR expand in response to IL-2 and can aid immune responses to BCG. [PDF]
, 2011 Subsets of NK cells can have distinct functions. Here, we report that >25% of human peripheral blood NK cells express HLA-DR after culture with IL-2.

The mechanobiology of NK cells- ‘Forcing NK to Sense’ target cells
Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Reviews on Cancer, 2023 Natural killer (NK) cells are innate immune lymphocytes that recognize and kill cancer and infected cells, which makes them unique 'off-the-shelf' candidates for a new generation of immunotherapies. Biomechanical forces in homeostasis and pathophysiology accrue additional immune regulation for NK immune responses.

Immunorecognition of leukemic stem cells by NK cells : the role of HDAC inhibitors in NKG2D ligand-mediated anti-tumor responses in acute myeloid leukemia [PDF]
, 2008 The diagnosis of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) is associated to a poor long-term outcome due to frequent relapse despite intensive chemotherapy, radiation and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) as well as continuous advances in treatment ...

Tumor-priming converts NK cells to memory-like NK cells
OncoImmunology, 2017 Fascinating earlier evidence suggests an intrinsic capacity of human natural killer (NK) cells to acquire adaptive immune features in the context of cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection or pro-inflammatory cytokine stimulation.
