The immunopathogenesisof HBV infection has been intensively studied and ispropelled by complex interactions between the virus andthe host immune system. Natural killer group 2D (NKG2D)is a well-characterized activating receptor, expressed onnatural killer (NK) cells, NK T cells and CD8+ cytotoxic Tcells. This receptor is present in both humans and miceand binds to a diverge family of ligands that resemble theMHC-class Ⅰ molecules. Increasing evidence shows thatNKG2D-ligand interactions are critical in the establishmentof HBV persistence and the development of liver injuryand HCC. The expression of NKG2D ligands dependson the presence of several polymorphisms and is alsomodulated post-transcriptionally by HBV. While it isknown that HBV circumvents host’s innate immunityvia the NKG2D pathway but the exact mechanismsinvolved are still elusive. This letter discusses previousaccomplishments on the role of NKG2D ligand regulationin the development of chronic HBV, liver injury and HCC.Key words: Hepatitis B virus; Natural killer group 2Dreceptor; Natural killer cells; MHC class I polypeptiderelatedchain A; Hepatocellular carcinoma展开更多

Although it is well known that natural killer(NK) cells are responsible for the immunodepression effects of transfusion, the underlying mechanisms remain obscure. In this study, we investigated the role of NK cells in transfusion-induced immunodepression in β-thalassemia major. The proportion of circulating NK cells and the expression of NK receptors(NKG2A, CD158 a, NKP30, NKP46 and NKG2D) as well as CD107 a were detected by multicolor flow cytometry. IFN-γ production by circulating NK cells was detected by intracellular cytokine staining. Our results showed that the proportion and cytotoxicity(CD107a expression) of circulating NK cells in transfusion-dependent β-thalassemia major patients were remarkably lower than those of β-thalassemia minor patients or healthy volunteers. Expression of NKG2 A inhibitory receptor on circulating NK cells in patients with β-thalassemia major was remarkably up-regulated, but there were no significant differences in the expression levels of NKP30, NKP46, NKG2 D, CD158 a and IFN-γ. These results indicate NKG2 A inhibitory receptor may play a key role in transfusion-induced immunodepression of NK cells in patients with β-thalassemia major.展开更多
