Activated γδ T cells express the natural cytotoxicity receptor natural killer p44 and show cytotoxic activity against myeloma cells

Abstract: NKp44. To our knowledge, this is the first description of the expression of NKp44 on polyclonal γ γ γ γδ δ δ δ T cells.

“…Regarding gd T-cell-mediated cytotoxicity, it is likely that the overall lytic function of these cells reflects the net sum of multiple receptor-ligand interactions as illustrated here with DNAM-1 and NKG2D. In this regard, a recent paper by von Lilienfeld-Toal et al shows that the natural cytotoxicity receptor NKp46 expressed by gd T cells plays a role in their cytotoxic activity against myeloma [9]. Further studies are required to address the involvement of other NK receptor-ligand pairs in the recognition of HCC and to determine whether their expression is predictive of gd T-cell therapy efficiency.…”

“…Similarly, mice genetically deficient in IL-15 lacked NK cells, indicating an obligate role for IL-15 in the development and functional maturation of these cells (26). More recently, IL-15 has been implicated in the up-regulation of NK cell receptor expression and function, as demonstrated for NKG2D (27) and NKp44 (28).…”

“…Finally, NK cells also express NCR (NKp30, NKp44 and NKp46) that are critically involved in tumor cell recognition [11]. In a marginal way, under particular conditions of activation,  T cells also express NKp44 [12].…”
