Characterization of human killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) among healthy Saudis [PDF]

Human Immunology, 2014
Genes encoding KIRs vary in frequency among different populations and ethnic groups. This study investigated the KIR gene frequency distribution in 148 healthy unrelated Saudi subjects and compared the results with other published findings. All inhibitory and activating KIR genes were present at variable frequencies, with A haplotype-associated genes ...

IL28B, HLA-C, and KIR variants additively predict response to therapy in chronic Hepatitis C virus infection in a European cohort: A cross-sectional study

, 2011
Background To date, drug response genes have not proved as useful in clinical practice as was anticipated at the start of the genomic era. An exception is in the treatment of chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) genotype 1 infection with pegylated interferon-

Characterisation of bovine leukocyte Ig-like receptors

, 2012
Leukocyte Immunoglobulin-like receptors (LILR) are innate immune receptors involved in regulating both innate and adaptive immune functions. LILR show more interspecies conservation than the closely related Killer Ig-like receptors, and homologues have ...

Mature T‐cell leukemia/lymphoma with an NK‐like immunophenotype: A report of 7 cases

Cytometry Part B: Clinical Cytometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Distinguishing T‐cell from NK‐cell neoplasms can occasionally be challenging, as neoplastic T cells can lose T‐cell markers such as surface CD3 (sCD3) and CD5 while acquiring NK‐cell markers such as CD16, CD56, and CD94. In this study, we present a series of 7 mature T‐cell lymphoma/leukemia cases with NK‐like immunophenotypes to clarify ...

HLA and KIR Frequencies in Sicilian Centenarians [PDF]

, 2010
Several studies suggest that human longevity appears to be linked inextricably with optimal functioning of the immune system, suggesting that specific genetic determinants may reside in loci that regulate the immune response, as human leukocyte antigen

Lectotypifications and taxonomic changes in the holoparasitic Orobanchaceae

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Based on further extensive studies of specimens in various herbaria, lectotypes are designated for many taxa of holoparasitic Orobanchaceae. In particular, 47 names in the genera Boschniakia (incl. Xylanche), Cistanche, Orobanche, Phelipanche and Phelypaea are lectotypified.

KIR gene content in amerindians indicates influence of demographic factors. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
Although the KIR gene content polymorphism has been studied worldwide, only a few isolated or Amerindian populations have been analyzed. This extremely diverse gene family codifies receptors that are expressed mainly in NK cells and bind HLA class I ...

Alpine flora of Kashmir Himalaya: floristic assessment, life history traits and threat status

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Alpine ecosystems in the Himalaya are considered to be at a higher risk to anthropogenic global change drivers. The Kashmir Himalaya, located in the north‐western side of the Himalayan biodiversity hotspot, harbors a diverse alpine flora, which remains systematically little investigated.
