چکیده

the number and function of human natural killer (nk) cells are generally assessed to monitor the baseline of immune function, the effect of treatment, the progress of malignancy or metastases and diseases. nk cells recognise and kill target cells in the absence of prior sensitisation and are able to defend the host from infection or prevent the progression of a disease. human nk cells express cd16 and cd56 which are (massively) being used as a major hallmark for the nk cell. the purpose of this study was to identify the unique subsets of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (pbmc) (%cd3-cd56+ cells) by flow cytometry and to determine whether there is any correlation with functionally mature progeny of (nkp) precursor after five days of culture. the correlation was analysed using samples obtained from 120 caucasian patients. 20-30ml of whole blood was collected in sterile tube containing preservative free sodium heparin and a similar sample was obtained after five days. maturation of nkp required the continuous presence of recombinant interleukin 2 (ril-2), or interleukin 15 (ril-15) and functional maturity of nk cells was determined by their ability to lyse target cells from the k562 cell line. the nk precursor frequency was measured by limiting dilution analysis (lda), which the nkpf assay was set up with a range of cell dilutions from 40,000 to 625 per 100l/well in 96 well culture plates. at the end of the culture period the k562 cell line labelled with europium (eu-k562) was added and eu release measured in culture supernatants using time-resolved fluorometry. the pbmc were set up in parallel cultures under various conditions .on day five cells were collected from culture plates and adjusted to 1x10 cells/ml and then mixed. the mixture was incubated and anti cd3 and anti cd56 were added. nk cells were enumerated in 120 patients by double staining with a combination of anti-cd3- and anti-cd56+. the results of these immunophenotyping studies by flow cytometry showed no correlation between the nkpf (natural killer precursor frequency) and the percent of cd3-cd56+ cells expressed after five days confirming that cd56 was inadequate as a unique marker for functional nk cells.

1 year and are subjected to similar analyses. If disease progression is unique to mice in our facility, it might suggest that environmental or infectious agents can play a role in the progression to the more severe phenotype in a subset of mice in the context of 12/15lipoxygenase deficiency. It is important to stress, however, that the defects we reported in the majority of Alox15 mice that are...

on translation of phatic communion and socio-cultural relationships between the characters of the novels

phatic communion is a cultural concept which differs across cultures. according to hofstede (2001), the u.s. tends to have individualistic culture; however, asian countries tend to have collectivistic cultures. these cultures view phatic communion differently. in individualistic cultures like u.s., phatic communion reflects speakers’ socio-cultural relationships in conversations. to see whether...

The Function of CD3+CD56+ NKT-Like Cells in HIV-Infected Individuals

CD3(+)CD56(+) NKT-like cells are one of the critical effectors in the immune response to viral infection and tumors, but the functional features of NKT-like cells in HIV infection have been rarely reported. In this study, we observed and described the state of NKT-like cell functions in primary HIV-infected individuals (PHIs), chronic HIV-infected individuals (CHIs), long-term nonprogressors (L...

Radiosensitivity of CD3 CD8þCD56þ NK cells

The effect of lower doses (0.5e3.0 Gy) of gamma radiation on radiosensitivity of CD3 /CD8þ NK cells subpopulation isolated from the peripheral blood of healthy volunteers was studied 48 h after the irradiation. Only a subtle increase in terms of induction of apoptosis (Aþ cells), was observed in Annexin positive CD3 /CD8þ NK cells. The assessment of the relative presence of CD3 /CD8þ NK cells i...
