Additionally, we utilized CD300A overexpression, a CD300A blocking system, and a xenotransplantation model to evaluate the impact of CD300A on NK cell efficacy against HMs in in vitro and in vivo settings. Furthermore, we explored the association between CD300A and HM progression in patients.Results: Our findings indicated that PS hampers the function of NK cells. Increased CD300A expression inhibited HM lysis by NK cells. CD300A overexpression shortened the survival of HM-xenografted mice by impairing transplanted NK cells. Blocking PS–CD300A signals with antibodies significantly amplified the expression of lysis function-related proteins and effector cytokines in NK cells, thereby augmenting the ability to lyse HMs. Clinically, heightened CD300A expression correlated with shorter survival and an “exhausted” phenotype of intratumoral NK cells in patients with HMs or solid tumors.Conclusions: These results propose CD300A as a potential target for invigorating NK cell-based treatments against HMs.展开更多

Transcription GEO provided two profiles of human NK cells from breast and adrenal tumors (GSE179509 and GSE143383). Data processing and normalization The Dseq2 tool in the R programming language was used to standardize the raw data from GEO. The following analyses were carried out: fold change and P-value analysis, volcano plot, network analysis, GEPIA, and David pathway analysis. In this paper, using Venny software, we discovered 2 genes that are shared by neurotransmitters and NK cells in breast cancer and adrenal cancer. Between these genes and the pathways, they are a part of, we discovered a network. Pathway analysis revealed that these genes are mostly linked to the neurotransmitter and apoptotic pathways. In breast and adrenal tumors, the genes HRH1 and GABRD were discovered to be connected to NK cells. In response to breast and adrenal tumors, almost all of these genes are effective. It is thus postulated that the diagnosis of breast and adrenal cancer may be affected by the up-or down-regulation of these genes. Methods: Microarray gene expression data gene expression data was obtained from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) Transcription 2 profile data of human NK cells from human breast and adrenal cancers were obtained from GEO (GSE179509 and GSE143383). Processing and normalization of data the raw data from GEO were normalized with the Dseq2 package in the R software. Fold change and P value analysis, Volcano plot, network analysis, GEPIA, and David pathway analysis were performed. Results: In this article, we found genes common to neurotransmitters with NK cells in adrenal cancer and breast cancer with Venny program, resulting in 2 genes. We identified a network between these genes and pathways they belong to. Pathway analysis showed that these genes are mostly associated with apoptosis and neurotransmitters pathway. Conclusion: HRH1 and GABRD genes were found to be associated with NK cells in breast and adrenal cancers. Almost all these genes are effective in response to breast and adrenal cancers. Therefore, it is hypothesized that downregulation or upregulation of these genes may affect breast and adrenal cancer diagnosis.展开更多
