Neutrophils Induced Licensing of Natural Killer Cells
Natural killer (NK) cells acquire effector function through a licensing process and exert anti-leukemia/tumor effect. However, there is no means to promote a licensing effect of allogeneic NK cells other than cytomegalovirus reactivation-induced licensing in allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in human. In mice, a licensing process is mediated by Ly49 receptors which recognize se...
متن کاملThe Critical Role of the Tumor Microenvironment in Shaping Natural Killer Cell-Mediated Anti-Tumor Immunity
Considerable evidence has been gathered over the last 10 years showing that the tumor microenvironment (TME) is not simply a passive recipient of immune cells, but an active participant in the establishment of immunosuppressive conditions. It is now well documented that hypoxia, within the TME, affects the functions of immune effectors including natural killer (NK) cells by multiple overlapping...
متن کاملIncreased Natural Killer Cells Activity in Schizophrenic Patients
Background: Schizophrenia has been associated with altered immunity. Different studies regarding natural killer cell activity (NKA) in schizophrenic patients have shown inconsistent results. Objectives: To evaluate NK cell activity in schizophrenic patients in comparison with healthy control individuals. Methods: 30 medication-free schizophrenic patients and 41 healthy sex, age and smoking st...
متن کاملCytokine-induced memory-like natural killer cells.
The mammalian immune response to infection is mediated by 2 broad arms, the innate and adaptive immune systems. Innate immune cells are a first-line defense against pathogens and are thought to respond consistently to infection, regardless of previous exposure, i.e., they do not exhibit memory of prior activation. By contrast, adaptive immune cells display immunologic memory that has 2 basic ch...
متن کاملMicroenvironment and Immunology TumorMicroenvironmental Conversion of Natural Killer Cells into Myeloid-Derived Suppressor Cells
How myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSC) emerge in the tumor environment remains unclear. Here, we report that GM-CSF can convert natural killer (NK) cells intoMDSCs.When transferred into tumor-bearingmice, adoptively transferred NK cells lost their NK phenotype and were converted into Ly6CLy6G MDSC. This conversion was abolished by exposure to IL-2 either in vitro or in vivo. Notably, we fo...
