Effect of Soluble HLA Class I Molecule on NK/LAK Cells Activation Induced by Poly I:C
Background: Natural Killer cells express killer inhibitory receptors specific for HLA-class I molecules. These receptors could induce signals that determine NK cells ability to mediate cytotoxicity. Purified soluble form of HLA class I molecules (sHLA) could bind to NK cell receptors and down-regulate the NK killer function. Objective: To evaluate the influence of sHLA and two monoclonal an...
متن کاملMature human eosinophils have the capacity to express HLA-DR.
Human eosinophils are known to lose Ia antigen expression as they mature, and, accordingly, eosinophils obtained from the blood of five eosinophilic donors and three of four normal donors failed to display the major histocompatibility complex class II antigen HLA-DR, as determined by flow cytometry. However, when eosinophils from these nine donors were maintained in culture with recombinant hum...
متن کاملAre Adolescents Less Mature Than Adults?
The American Psychological Association’s (APA’s) stance on the psychological maturity of adolescents has been criticized as inconsistent. In its Supreme Court amicus brief in Roper v. Simmons (2005), which abolished the juvenile death penalty, APA described adolescents as developmentally immature. In its amicus brief in Hodgson v. Minnesota (1990), however, which upheld adolescents’ right to se...
متن کاملExisting and emerging high impact invasive species are characterized by higher functional responses than natives.
Predicting ecological impacts of invasive species and identifying potentially damaging future invaders are research priorities. Since damage by invaders is characterized by their depletion of resources, comparisons of the 'functional response' (FR; resource uptake rate as a function of resource density) of invaders and natives might predict invader impact. We tested this by comparing FRs of the...
متن کاملHuman NK Cell Up-regulation of CD69, HLA-DR, Interferon γ Secretion and Cytotoxic Activity by Plasmacytoid Dendritic Cells is Regulated through Overlapping but Different Pathways
Human plasmacytoid dendritic cells secrete high levels of IFNα and are thus implicated in the activation of NK cells. Activated NK cells are characterised by the up-regulation of CD69 and MHC class II DR expression, secretion of IFN γ and enhanced cytotoxicity. We show that pDC mediate these processes by different mechanisms, some of which overlap. Human NK cells were analysed after co-culture ...
