The PP2A inhibitor SET regulates natural killer cell IFN-γ production
Monokines (i.e., interleukin [IL]-12, -18, and -15) induce natural killer (NK) cells to produce interferon-gamma (IFN-gamma), which is a critical factor for immune surveillance of cancer and monocyte clearance of infection. We show that SET, which is a potent inhibitor of protein phosphatase type 2A (PP2A) activity, is highly expressed in human CD56bright NK cells, which produce more IFN-gamma ...
متن کاملNatural killer and lymphokine-activated killer cells require granzyme B for the rapid induction of apoptosis in susceptible target cells.
Granzyme (Gzm) B-deficient mice obtained by gene targeting were used to assess the role of Gzm B in the mechanisms used by natural killer (NK) and lymphokine-activated killer (LAK) cells to destroy target cells. Gzm B-/- NK cells, LAK cells, and cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) all are defective in their ability to rapidly induce DNA fragmentation/apoptosis in susceptible target cells. This defect...
متن کاملGranzyme B and natural killer (NK) cell death.
Granzyme B is a unique serine protease, which plays a crucial role for target cell death. Several mechanisms of delivery of granzyme B to target cells have been recently identified. Granzyme B directly activates Bid, a specific substrate for granzyme B, resulting in caspase activation. Granzyme B efficiently cleaves many prominent autoantigens, and the hypothesis that autoantibodies arise when ...
متن کاملHepatic natural killer cells exclusively kill splenic/blood natural killer-resistant tumor cells by the perforin/granzyme pathway.
Hepatic natural killer (NK) cells are located in the liver sinusoids adherent to the endothelium. Human and rat hepatic NK cells induce cytolysis in tumor cells that are resistant to splenic or blood NK cells. To investigate the mechanism of cell death, we examined the capacity of isolated, pure (90%) rat hepatic NK cells to kill the splenic/blood NK-resistant mastocytoma cell line P815. Cell d...
متن کاملHuman natural killer cells.
Natural killer (NK) cells were discovered more than 30 years ago. NK cells are large granular lymphocytes that belong to the innate immune system because unlike T or B lymphocytes of the adaptive or antigen-specific immune system, NK cells do not rearrange T-cell receptor or immunoglobulin genes from their germline configuration. During the past 2 decades there has been a substantial gain in ou...
