چکیده

allergic rhinitis  (ar) is  an  inflammatory  disorder  of  the  nasal  mucosa  with  high morbidity and prevalence. natural killer (nk) cells might have a role in ar. we aimed to evaluate the changes of the markers and receptors on nk cells in ar patients compared to the non-atopic controls. flow  cytometric  analysis was  used  with  double  staining  of  the  peripheral  blood mononuclear cells (pbmcs) to examine the expression of cd25 and cd69 markers, and nkg2d  and nkg2a  receptors on nk  cells of 20 patients with ar and 20 non-atopic controls. the serum total ige level was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. the expression of cd69 antigen on nk cells in ar patients was significantly higher than that  of  healthy group  (p=0.03). no  significant changes were observed  between  cd25, nkg2d  and nkg2a expression on the surface of nk cells from healthy and ar subjects. our study also showed that there was no significant correlation between the expression of cd69, cd25, nkg2d and nkg2a and level of serum total ige in ar patients and normal subjects. these results indicated that the expression of cd69 antigen on nk cells of ar patients was increased. the high expression of cd69 on nk cells in ar patients suggested that these cells were activated, probably due to the cytokines secreted from allergen-stimulated t cells and activated monocytes.

Increased 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...

Increased Th2-like Invariant Natural Killer T cells in Peripheral Blood From Patients With Asthma

PURPOSE Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells might play an important role in asthma pathogenesis in humans. Our previous study found no difference in the number of blood iNKT cells between asthma patients and controls. However, few studies have examined the function of blood iNKT cells in human asthma. METHODS Twenty asthma patients and eight controls were included in this study. Blood iNK...

Increased Expression of TRAIL and Its Receptors on Peripheral T-Cells in Type 1 Diabetic Patients

Background: Type-I diabetes is an autoimmune inflammatory disease in which pancreatic ß-cells are selectively destroyed by infiltrating cells. TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) is a type-II membrane protein of the TNF superfamily which is expressed in different tissues, including pancreas and lymphocytes. In humans, TRAIL interacts with four membrane receptors. TRAIL-R1 and TRAIL-R2...

The State of Peripheral Blood Natural Killer Cells and Cytotoxicity in Women with Recurrent Pregnancy Loss and Unexplained Infertility

Objective : The prognostic value of peripheral natural killer (pNK) cells, as a screening test in women with recurrent pregnancy loss (RPL) and unexplained infertility is still a matter for discussion. The aim of this study was to compare the percentage of circulating CD56+NK cells, CD69 and perforin markers between women with unexplained infertility and RPL with healthy control group. Material...

Natural killer cells in human peripheral blood and primary cutaneous natural killer cell lymphomas may express cutaneous lymphocyte antigen.

In normal human peripheral blood, cutaneous lymphocyte antigen is expressed by memory T cells, suggesting a specific tissue-homing population of T cells. In this study it is demonstrated that 6% of CD56 + natural killer cells in peripheral blood also express cutaneous lymphocyte antigen (CLA). It was also detected that most of the tumor cells in primary cutaneous nasal-type natural killer cell ...
