Natural killer cell responses to viral infection.
Natural killer (NK) cells, as part of the innate immune system, play a key role in host defense against viral infections. Recent advances have indicated that NK cell activation and function are regulated by the interplay between inhibitory and activating signals. Thus, a better understanding of mechanisms responsible for NK cell activation and function in the control of viral infections will he...
متن کاملAntibody Responses during Hepatitis B Viral Infection
Hepatitis B is a DNA virus that infects liver cells and can cause both acute and chronic disease. It is believed that both viral and host factors are responsible for determining whether the infection is cleared or becomes chronic. Here we investigate the mechanism of protection by developing a mathematical model of the antibody response following hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection. We fitted the...
متن کاملAnalysis of in situ NK cell responses during viral infection.
NK cells are required for early control of murine CMV (MCMV) infection, but the distribution of murine NK cells in situ has not been clearly defined. We tested the reactivity of all available NK cell receptor-specific mAbs by immunohistochemistry. Only one mAb, 4D11 (anti-Ly-49G2), was reactive with C57BL/6 tissue sections. mAb 4D11-reactive cells expressed the nuclear morphology and flow cytom...
متن کاملNKT Cell Responses to B Cell Lymphoma
Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a unique subset of CD1d-restricted T lymphocytes that express characteristics of both T cells and natural killer cells. NKT cells mediate tumor immune-surveillance; however, NKT cells are numerically reduced and functionally impaired in lymphoma patients. Many hematologic malignancies express CD1d molecules and co-stimulatory proteins needed to induce anti-tumor...
متن کاملCD200 Receptor Controls Sex-Specific TLR7 Responses to Viral Infection
Immunological checkpoints, such as the inhibitory CD200 receptor (CD200R), play a dual role in balancing the immune system during microbial infection. On the one hand these inhibitory signals prevent excessive immune mediated pathology but on the other hand they may impair clearance of the pathogen. We studied the influence of the inhibitory CD200-CD200R axis on clearance and pathology in two d...
