Natural Killer Cell Tolerance in Mice with Mosaic Expression of Major Histocompatibility Complex Class I Transgene
We have studied natural killer (NK) cell tolerance in a major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I transgenic line, DL6, in which the transgene product was expressed on only a fraction of blood cells. In contrast with transgenic mice expressing the same transgene in all cells, NK cells from mosaic mice failed to reject transgene-negative bone marrow or lymphoma grafts. However, they retaine...
متن کاملNatural killer cell education in mice with single or multiple major histocompatibility complex class I molecules
The ability of murine NK cells to reject cells lacking self MHC class I expression results from an in vivo education process. To study the impact of individual MHC class I alleles on this process, we generated mice expressing single MHC class I alleles (K(b), D(b), D(d), or L(d)) or combinations of two or more alleles. All single MHC class I mice rejected MHC class I-deficient cells in an NK ce...
متن کاملMMP3 -1171 5A/6A Promoter Polymorphism Affects Level of Serum Major Histocompatibility Complex Class Chain Related B in Breast Cancer Patients
Background and Aims: Involvement of matrix metalloproteinases 3 (MMP3) in breast cancer tumor progression and metastasis has been revealed. MMP3 -1171 5A/6A and 5A/5A polymorphisms in the gene promoter increase expression of the enzyme. The possible relationship of these polymorphisms and serum levels of major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related protein A and B (MICA/B) in br...
متن کاملMajor histocompatibility complex class-I-interacting natural killer cell receptors of nonhuman primates.
Human natural killer (NK) cell receptors are known to be highly polymorphic, to show complex genetics and to be associated with susceptibility to a variety of immunological diseases. Nonhuman primates are used as important models of these diseases, yet the knowledge of nonhuman primate NK cell receptors and ligands is not as advanced as in humans. Recently published data indicated that diversit...
