NK cell inflammation in the clinical outcome of colorectal carcinoma

Frontiers in Medicine, 2015
The ability of natural killer (NK) cells to provide protection against myeloid leukemia has been demonstrated in clinical settings. However, whether NK cells play a role in the clinical course of solid tumors is debated.

Osteoclast-expanded super-charged NK-cells preferentially select and expand CD8+ T cells

Scientific Reports, 2020
Osteoclasts (OCs) and much less dendritic cells (DCs) induce significant expansion and functional activation of NK cells, and furthermore, the OC-expanded NK cells preferentially increase the expansion and activation of CD8+ T cells by targeting CD4+ T ...

Viral antigen mediated NKp46 activation of NK cells results in tumor rejection via NK-DC crosstalk

, 2012
Natural killer (NK) cells play a critical role in antitumor immunity, their activation being regulated through NK cell receptors. Although the endogenous ligands for these receptors are largely unknown, viral ligands have been identified. We investigated

Influenza vaccination in immunosuppressed and healthy individuals : DC-induced regulatory NK cell-function [PDF]

, 2011
Infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) leads to immunosuppression, mainly through depletion of CD4+ T cells. Anti-retroviral therapy (ART) inhibits virus replication and thereby promotes recovery of T cell numbers and reconstitution of ...

NK cell-based tumor immunotherapy

Bioactive Materials
Natural killer (NK) cells display a unique inherent ability to identify and eliminate virus-infected cells and tumor cells. They are particularly powerful for elimination of hematological cancers, and have attracted considerable interests for therapy of ...

IL-2 stimulated but not unstimulated NK cells induce selective disappearance of peripheral blood cells: concomitant results to a phase I/II study

, 2011
In an ongoing clinical phase I/II study, 16 pediatric patients suffering from high risk leukemia/tumors received highly purified donor natural killer (NK) cell immunotherapy (NK-DLI) at day (+3) +40 and +100 post haploidentical stem cell transplantation.

On‐Chip Biogenesis of Circulating NK Cell‐Derived Exosomes in Non‐Small Cell Lung Cancer Exhibits Antitumoral Activity

Advanced Science, 2021
As the recognition between natural killer (NK) cells and cancer cells does not require antigen presentation, NK cells are being actively studied for use in adoptive cell therapies in the rapidly evolving armamentarium of cancer immunotherapy. In addition

Matched sizes of activating and inhibitory receptor/ligand pairs are required for optimal signal integration by human Natural Killer cells [PDF]

, 2010
It has been suggested that receptor-ligand complexes segregate or co-localise within immune synapses according to their size, and this is important for receptor signaling.

Functional crosstalk and regulation of natural killer cells in tumor microenvironment: Significance and potential therapeutic strategies

Genes and Diseases, 2023
Natural killer (NK) cells eliminate a large variety of tumor cells and abnormal cells. However, NK cells in the tumor microenvironment (TME) are often functionally depleted. A few subsets of NK cells even promote tumor growth.

Non-classic properties of human cytolytic lymphocytes. basic and clinical aspects [PDF]

, 2008
The immune system comprises a complex network of specialized cells and organs that function together to recognize and remove potentially harmful "non-self", i.e. pathogens, malignant cells and –by extension– also transplanted allogeneic cells.
