Suppressor of Cytokine Signaling (SOCS)1 and SOCS3 Stimulation during Experimental Cytomegalovirus Retinitis: Virologic, Immunologic, or Pathologic Mechanisms
AIDS-related human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) retinitis remains the leading cause of blindness among untreated HIV/AIDS patients worldwide. Understanding the pathogenesis of this disease is essential for developing new, safe, and effective treatments for its prevention or management, yet much remains unknown about the virologic and immunologic mechanisms contributing to its pathology. To study such...

متن کاملMurine NK-cell licensing is reflective of donor MHC-I following allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation in murine cytomegalovirus responses.
Natural killer (NK) cells express inhibitory receptors with varied binding affinities to specific major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) haplotypes. NK cells can be classified as licensed or unlicensed based on their ability or inability to bind MHC-I, respectively. The role of donor vs host MHC on their development after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) ...
متن کاملExpansion and contraction of the NK cell compartment in response to murine cytomegalovirus infection.
NK cells are capable of responding quickly to infectious challenge and contribute to the early defense against a wide variety of pathogens. Although the innate NK cell response to murine CMV (MCMV) has been extensively characterized, its resolution and the fate of the activated NK cell population remains unexplored. Herein, we characterize both the expansion and contraction phases of the NK cel...
متن کاملModulation of Clr Ligand Expression and NKR-P1 Receptor Function during Murine Cytomegalovirus Infection.
Viruses are known to induce pathological cellular states that render infected cells susceptible or resistant to immune recognition. Here, we characterize an MHC-I-independent natural killer (NK) cell recognition mechanism that involves modulation of inhibitory NKR-P1B:Clr-b receptor-ligand interactions in response to mouse cytomegalovirus (MCMV) infection. We demonstrate that mouse Clr-b expres...
