BCR/ABL promotes dendritic cell-mediated natural killer cell activation.
BCR/ABL fusion gene, encoding a paradigmatic tyrosine kinase involved in chronic myelogenous leukemia (CML), can modulate the expression of genes involved in natural killer (NK) cell target recognition. Recent reports outline the role of allogeneic antileukemic NK effectors in the graft-versus-leukemia effect but the regulation of NK cell activation in the setting of graft-versus-leukemia effec...
متن کاملThe Efficacy of Toll-Like Receptors in Awakening Dendritic Cell/Natural Killer Cell System for Eradication of Tumors
Natural killer (NK) cells are effector cells of the innate immune system that exert direct cytotoxic functions. Ubiquitously-expressed toll-like receptors (TLRs) have been recognized as one of the major components promoting dendritic cell (DC) maturation, which may induce polarized immune responses beneficial to cancer immunotherapy. TLR-activated NK cells and DCs are prerequisite for robust ac...
متن کاملDendritic Cell Derived Cytokines in Human Natural Killer Cell Differentiation and Activation
Dendritic cells (DCs) and natural killer (NK) cells shape each other's functions early during immune responses. DCs activate NK cells and NK cells can mature or kill DCs. In this review we will discuss which DC and NK cell subsets are mainly affected by this interaction, where these encounters might take place and which signals are exchanged. Finally, we will point out what the clinical benefit...
متن کاملMolecular mechanisms of natural killer cell activation.
With an array of activating and inhibitory receptors, natural killer (NK) cells can specifically eradicate infected and transformed cells. Target cell killing is achieved through directed release of lytic granules. Recognition of target cells also induces production of chemokines and cytokines that can coordinate immune responses. Upon contact with susceptible cells, a multiplicity of activatin...
متن کاملViral Evasion of Natural Killer Cell Activation
Natural killer (NK) cells play a key role in antiviral innate defenses because of their abilities to kill infected cells and secrete regulatory cytokines. Additionally, NK cells exhibit adaptive memory-like antigen-specific responses, which represent a novel antiviral NK cell defense mechanism. Viruses have evolved various strategies to evade the recognition and destruction by NK cells through ...
