Response to immunocytokine (IC) therapy is dependent on natural killer cells in murine neuroblastoma (NBL) models. Furthermore, killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR)/KIR-ligand mismatch is associated with improved outcome to autologous stem cell transplant for NBL. Additionally, clinical antitumor response to monoclonal antibodies has been associated with specific polymorphic-FcgR alleles. ...
Investigation of the KIR-status of patients with head and neck squamous-cell carcinoma in bloodserum
Introduction The activation of natural killer cells (NK) by their KIR (killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor) is a potent defense system tumor cells. In this thesis we want to investigate the profile 16 inhibiting and activating KIRs in bloodserum patients with head neck squamous-cell carcinoma (HNSCC). Furthermore, calculate correlation between KIR-status overall survival (OS) HNSCC-patients.
Killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) are membrane proteins expressed by natural killer cells and CD8 lymphocytes. The KIR system consists of 17 genes and 614 alleles, some of which bind human leukocyte antigens (HLA). Both KIR and HLA modulate susceptibility to haematological malignancies, viral infections and autoimmune diseases. Molecular epidemiology studies employ traditional sta...
BACKGROUND The interaction between killer immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIRs) and HLA class I regulates natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity and function. The impact of NK cell alloreactivity through KIR in liver transplantation remains unelucidated. Since the frequency of HLA-C and KIR genotypes show ethnic differences, we assessed the impact of HLA-C, KIR genotype, or KIR-ligand mismatch on...
The aim of this study was to analyze killer immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene polymorphisms in the Tibetan ethnic minority of China. To that purpose, we have studied KIR gene frequencies and genotype diversities of 16 KIR genes and three pseudogenes (2DL1, 2DL2, 2DL3, 2DL4, 2DL5A, 2DL5B, 2DS1, 2DS2, 2DS3, 2DS4*001/002, 2DS4*003-007, 2DS5, 3DL1, 3DL2, 3DL3, 3DS1, 2DP1, 3DP1*001/002/004, an...
The killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene cluster exhibits extensive allelic and haplotypic diversity that is observed as presence/absence of genes, resulting in expansion and contraction of KIR haplotypes and by allelic variation of individual KIR genes. We report a case of KIR pseudogene 2DP1 and 2DL1 gene absence in members of one family with the children suffering from acute m...
In the present study, 17 killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptors (KIR) genes and KIR ligands (human leukocyte antigen [HLA] -A and -B) were detected by using a polymerase chain reaction-sequence-specific primer (PCR-SSP) method in 104 unrelated healthy Han individuals living in Shaanxi province, China. The observed carrier frequencies of the 12 KIR genes ranged from 0.14 to 0.96. KIR2DL4, 3DL...
Background: Natural killer (NK) cells are the effector cells of innate immunity that respond to infection and tumor. Interactions between killer cell immunoglobulin like receptors (KIR) and human leukocyte antigen (HLA) class I molecules regulate NK cells responses to eliminate infected and transformed cells. Objective: To investigate the impact of KIR genes, HLA ligand genes, and KIR-HLA combi...
The killer cell Ig-like receptors (KIRs) of NK cells recognize MHC class I ligands and function in placental reproduction and immune defense against pathogens. During the evolution of monkeys, great apes, and humans, an ancestral KIR3DL gene expanded to become a diverse and rapidly evolving gene family of four KIR lineages. Characterizing the KIR locus are three framework regions, defining two ...
The killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) repertoire of natural killer (NK) cells determines their ability to detect infected or transformed target cells. Although epigenetic mechanisms play a role in KIR gene expression, work in the mouse suggests that other regulatory elements may be involved at specific stages of NK-cell development. Here we report the effects of the transcription f...
