This work deals with an analysis of the role of cholesterol-rich lipid microdomains (rafts) in cellular mechanisms of natural
immunity and antitumor defense. The lytic action of natural killer (NK) cells was studied depending on the cholesterol content
and the state of lipid rafts in the plasma membrane of transformed cells. In this work, the targets were human leukemia K562
cells. For the partial extraction of cholesterol, methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MbCD), cyclic oligosaccharide selectively binding
sterols, was used. A decrease in the cholesterol level after the incubation of cells with MbCD was confirmed by the enzymatic
method. Using the 3H-uridine test, the activity of NK (mouse splenocytes) towards the cultivated K562 cells was estimated under different conditions,
including those after the cell incubation with MbCD or alpha-cyclodextrin (aCD), a structural MbCD analog that does not bind
sterols. The results obtained indicate that a decrease in the cholesterol content in K562 cells (after treatment with MbCD
at a concentration of 2.5 or 5 mM) leads to the complete loss of their sensitivity to the NK lytic action. Most likely, this
is caused by a disturbance of the structure of the lipid rafts whose integrity critically depends on the membrane cholesterol
level. These conclusions agree with the data on the visualization of the cellular surface changes obtained at the fluorescent
labeling of the ganglioside GM1, a marker of the cholesterol-rich lipid microdomains. 相似文献

In the present paper, functional properties of nonvoltage-gated sodium channels in K562 cells were studied after cholesterol
depletion, i.e., under conditions of the destruction of microdomains (rafts). For cholesterol depletion, cells were incubated
with methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MbCD), an oligosaccharide that selectively binds sterols. Single currents through sodium channels
were recorded in cell-attached and inside-out experiments using the patch-clamp technique. After incubation with MbCD (2.5
or 5 mM), the activation of sodium channels in response to cytochalasin B or D was observed in both native cells and membrane
fragments. Biophysical characteristics of sodium channels in cholesterol-depleted K562 cells were close to those in control;
unitary conductance was 12 pS. Inside-out experiments with the use of globular actin have indicated that filament assembly
on cytoplasmic membrane side causes an inactivation of sodium channels in the modified cells. These data imply that sodium
channels in K562 cells are not associated with cholesterol-rich membrane microdomains. Possible mechanisms of the interaction
of the plasma membrane and the cortical cytoskeleton are discussed. 相似文献

Cholesterol is a critical regulator of lipid bilayer dynamics and plasma membrane organization in eukaryotes. A variety of ion channels have been shown to be modulated by cellular cholesterol and partition into cholesterol-enriched membrane rafts. However, very little is known about functional role of membrane cholesterol in regulation of mechanically gated channels that are ubiquitously present in living cells. In our previous study, the effect of methyl-beta-cyclodextrin (MbCD), cholesterol-sequestering agent, on Ca2+-permeable stretch-activated cation channels (SACs) has been described. Here, cell-attached patch-clamp method was employed to search for the mechanisms of cholesterol-dependent regulation of SACs and to clarify functional contribution of lipid bilayer and submembranous cytoskeleton to channel gating. Cholesterol-depleting treatment with MbCD significantly decreased open probability of SACs whereas alpha-cyclodextrin had no effect. F-actin disassembly fully restored high level of SAC activity in cholesterol-depleted cells. Particularly, treatment with cytochalasin D or latrunculin B abrogated inhibitory effect of MbCD on stretch-activated currents. Single channel analysis and fluorescent imaging methods indicate that inhibition of SACs after cholesterol depletion is mediated via actin remodeling initiated by disruption of lipid rafts. Our data reveal a novel mechanism of channel regulation by membrane cholesterol and lipid rafts. 相似文献

Treatment of mouse spleen cells with specific anti-H-2 antisera augments their natural killer (NK) activity against K562 cells but not against YAC target tumor cells. The same population of natural killer cells was found to lyse K562 as well as YAC target cells, since (a) depletion of YAC reactive NK cells by absorption on YAC monolayers resulted in a concomitant depletion of anti-K562 NK activity of mouse spleen cells, and (b) both K562 and YAC cells could inhibit their own as well as each others lysis in a cross-competition assay. Anti-H-2 antiserum could not induce anti-K562 NK activity in spleen cells previously depleted of NK cells by absorption on YAC monolayers, indicating that alloantiserum does not act by recruiting otherwise nonreactive cells to become cytotoxic toward K562 target cells. In a target-binding assay, K562 binding of NK cells (T-cell-, B-cell-, and macrophage-depleted spleen cells) increased five- to eightfold in the presence of anti-H-2 antiserum whereas YAC cells binding of NK cells was not increased. H-2 antigens per se did not appear to be involved in the alloantisera effect since anti-NK antiserum directed against a non-H-2 antigen selectively expressed on NK cells, showed a similar selective NK enhancing effect. Protein A, a reagent which binds to the Fc region of immunoglobulin molecules, completely blocked the alloantiserum induced augmentation of anti-K562 NK activity, but did not alter basal NK activity. Moreover, the F(ab)2 fraction of alloantibodies failed to enhance anti-K562 cytotoxic activity of mouse spleen cells, indicating a crucial role for the Fc portion of the alloantibodies attached to the NK cells, in NK augmentation. Utilization of several target cell lines with or without membrane Fc receptors (FcR) revealed that alloantiserum enhanced the lysis of only FcR+ target cells. It is proposed that alloantibody-coated NK cells, as a result of a secondary interaction between attached alloantibody and Fc receptors on target cells, interact more readily with the target cells and thereby cause a higher level of lytic activity. 相似文献

Decay-accelerating factor expression on either effector or target cells inhibits cytotoxicity by human natural killer cells. 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
R W Finberg W White A Nicholson-Weller 《Journal of immunology (Baltimore, Md. : 1950)》1992,149(6):2055-2060
Previous studies have shown that freshly isolated CD16+ NK cells are deficient in the expression of decay-accelerating factor (DAF), or CD55, a membrane regulator of C3 activation. In this study we investigated the significance, for NK cell-mediated lysis, of DAF expression on the target and effector cells. The effect of DAF expression on the susceptibility of NK cell targets was investigated by several means: first, DAF- cell lines were cloned from K562; second, the cloned DAF- cells were reconstituted with exogenous purified DAF; and third, anti-DAF F(ab')2 was used to block DAF function on the DAF+ K562 cells. Consistently, the presence of DAF in the target cell membrane, either naturally occurring or experimentally incorporated, afforded the target cell protection against lysis, and this protection could be blocked with anti-DAF. Similarly, targets for antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity with exogenous DAF incorporated in their plasma membrane became less sensitive to antibody-dependent cell-mediated cytotoxicity by NK cells compared with the same target cells without incorporated DAF in their membranes. DAF incorporated in the plasma membranes of the effector NK cells made the NK cells less effective at killing K562 targets. The known function of DAF is to regulate C3 activation, and we were able to demonstrate that the isolated NK cell is capable of releasing C3. It is also possible that the participation of DAF in NK cell function represents a new, noncomplement-dependent function for DAF. 相似文献

We have previously shown that erythroleukemia cells (K562) transfected with vascular adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM-1) are susceptible to human T-cell leukemia virus type 1 (HTLV-1)-induced syncytium formation. Since expression of VCAM-1 alone is not sufficient to render cells susceptible to HTLV-1 fusion, K562 cells appear to express a second molecule critical for HTLV-induced syncytium formation. By immunizing mice with K562 cells, we have isolated four monoclonal antibodies (MAbs), K5.M1, K5.M2, K5.M3, and K5.M4, that inhibit HTLV-induced syncytium formation between infected MT2 cells and susceptible K562/VCAM1 cells. These MAbs recognize distinct proteins on the surface of cells as determined by cell phenotyping, immunoprecipitation, and Western blot analysis. Since three of the proteins recognized by the MAbs appear to be GPI linked, we isolated lipid rafts and determined by immunoblot analysis that all four MAbs recognize proteins that sort entirely or in large part to lipid rafts. Dispersion of lipid rafts on the cells by cholesterol depletion with beta-cyclodextrin resulted in inhibition of syncytium formation, and this effect was not seen when the beta-cyclodextrin was preloaded with cholesterol before treating the cells. The results of these studies suggest that lipid rafts may play an important role in HTLV-1 syncytium formation. 相似文献

NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity results from membrane interactions between NK effector and target cells. The role of membrane fluidity in these events is not known. The present study was undertaken to investigate the effect of changes in membrane lipid fluidity of NK effector and NK-sensitive target cells on the lytic pathway of NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Fluidity was modulated by various lipids and measured by fluorescence polarization. NK effector cells treated with phosphatidylcholine complexed with polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) showed increased membrane fluidity. This fluidization of the effector cell membrane resulted in a significant inhibition of cytotoxic activity in the 51Cr-release assay. Single cell analysis revealed that the inhibition was due to a decrease in the frequency of NK target conjugates and reduced killing of conjugated targets. Rigidification of the NK effector cell membranes by treatment with cholesteryl hemisuccinate complexed with PVP and BSA also resulted in inhibition of cytotoxicity. This inhibition was post binding, because binding was increased and lysis was abrogated. Fluidization of K562 target cell membranes caused a slight but insignificant increase in their lysis by NK cells without affecting the binding step. On the other hand, rigidification of K562 membranes decreased the sensitivity of these target cells to lysis. Single cell analysis revealed that this inhibition of NK lysis is post binding, because the frequency of killers was significantly decreased. It was also shown that membrane rigidification of target cells that were programmed for lysis during the lethal hit stage and subsequently separated from effector cells, rendered the programmed cells resistant to killing during the killer cell-independent lysis step. These results demonstrate that fluidization or rigidification of the plasma membrane of either effector or target cells affect different stages of the NK cell-mediated cytolytic events. 相似文献

The bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) system was used to investigate the tumor killing effect of natural killer (NK) cells under various experimental conditions. It was found that NK cells interact specifically with BLMs made from lipids and proteolipids isolated from target K562 cells inducing an increase of the membrane conductance. This effect was more pronounced when the NK cells were pretreated with interferon. A similar effect was observed when NK cells were pretreated with sodium selenite. The results suggest that changes in membrane conductance and permeability are involved in the mechanism of the tumor-killing effect mediated by NK cells. 相似文献

Summary The effect of Adriamycin (ADM) on eryhtroleukaemia K 562 cell susceptibility to human natural killer (NK) cell activity has been studied. When cultivated for 3 days in the presence of 10 to 40 nM ADM, K 562 cells decreased their susceptibility to NK-mediated lysis in a dose-dependent fashion. At a concentration of 40 nM, previously found to induce optimal differentiation-associated properties in K 562 cells, the induced resistance to NK-mediated lysis increased progressively from day 1 to day 3 of culture. ADM treatment did not induce K 562 cells to release factors which interfered with NK activity since supernatants from ADM-treated K 562 cell cultures caused no significant modification in the NK lytic process. Binding to NK of ADM-treated K 562 cells was unaffected since treated and untreated cells had identical capacities in a conjugate-forming cell assay or adsorption of NK cells on target cell monolayers. In cold target competition assays ADM-treated K 562 cells acted as more effective competitors than untreated K 562 cells. These observations imply that the reduced killing of the ADM-treated K 562 cells was independent of target-NK cell recognition, and suggest that ADM treatment could allow malignant cells to escape NK surveillance. 相似文献

Role of interferon in natural kill of HSV-1-infected fibroblasts 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

The production of interferon during natural killer (NK) assays against HSV-1-infected fibroblasts (NK(HSV-1)) was studied to determine whether this interferon was responsible for inducing the preferential lysis of herpes-virus-infected target cells over uninfected target cells. The interferon produced during NK(HSV-1) assays was analyzed and found to have the properties of HU-IFN-alpha. Little or no IFN was produced during NK assays against uninfected fibroblasts (NK(FS)) or K562 (NK(K562)) cells. Although the appearance of interferon in the culture supernatants seemed to parallel the development of cytotoxicity during NK(HSV-1) assays, the levels of cytotoxicity and IFN generated did not correlate, arguing against a strict quantitative dependence of cytotoxicity upon IFN production. NK(K562) and NK(FS) cytotoxicity developed with little or no production of IFN. When IFN-pretreated effector cells were used, there was still a preferential lysis of infected over uninfected target cells. This preferential lysis by IFN-treated effector cells of infected over uninfected targets was seen as early as 2 hr into the assay. Anti-IFN antibodies added to the NK assays, although neutralizing all the IFN produced during the assays, had no effect on NK(FS) or NK(K562) cytotoxic activity and caused a slightly reduction of NK(HSV-1) activity only in one of three experiments. We conclude that although IFN is generated during NK(HSV-1) assays, this IFN cannot solely account for the increased lysis of infected over uninfected cells and that NK(HSV-1) activity is in some other way dependent on the virus infection. 相似文献

Preparation of target antigens specifically recognized by human natural killer cells 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In an attempt to identify target cell membrane molecules recognized by natural killer (NK) cells, artificial membranes were prepared from detergent-solubilized plasma membranes of NK target cells and synthetic lipids. Such reconstituted membranes from human and rat NK target cells were shown to inhibit both human and rat NK-target cell conjugates in a species-specific fashion; these reconstituted membranes failed to inhibit NK cytotoxicity. The detergent-solubilized material from the human NK target K562 was subjected to various procedures prior to reconstitution and the conjugate inhibition assay. Conjugate inhibitory activity was lost upon trypsin digestion and incubation at 65 degrees C. This inhibition activity was absorbed to concanavalin A agarose and could subsequently be eluted with alpha-methylmannoside, resulting in approximately 20-fold purification. Gel filtration of this material on an AcA-34 column in detergent gave a broad activity peak with maximal activity in the molecular weight range of 30,000-165,000. Gel electrophoresis of purified membranes demonstrated multiple molecular weight bands in lipid membranes. The K562 membrane material, purified by concanavalin A agarose and gel filtration, inhibited conjugates between human NK cells and any of four human target cells, but not of conjugates with (1) human large granular lymphocytes and antibody-coated mouse tumor cells nor (2) rat NK cells and their target cells. Thus the purified glycoproteins from K562 retain the property of specific inhibition of human NK-target conjugates. 相似文献

K562 cells induced to differentiate by phorbol ester tumor promotors resist NK lysis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The effect of various phorbols and phorbol diesters on the NK sensitivity of the human leukemic K562 cells was studied. A marked decrease in K562 cell susceptibility was achieved by culture in the presence of either 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA) or beta-phorbol-dibutyrate. The maximum protection against NK lysis was achieved when K562 cells were cultured in the presence of 160 nM TPA for 48 hr (mean percentage inhibition: 61% of specific lysis). As for untreated targets, the residual killing of K562 cells after TPA treatment was mediated through large granular lymphocytes (LGL). The experimental procedures required to achieve maximal NK protection with TPA resulted simultaneously in marked phenotypical changes in K562 cells: erythroid and early myeloid markers decreased, whereas the expression of megakaryocytic markers was increased as shown by staining with antiplatelet monoclonal antibodies and assessment of platelet peroxidase activity. Chemical phorbol analogs which were unable to induce K562 cell differentiation did not affect K562 cell sensitivity to NK lysis. De novo protein synthesis is involved in the TPA-induced NK resistance, since this effect was abolished by pretreatment of K562 cells with actinomycin D or cycloheximide. TPA has been previously demonstrated to reduce NK effector activity. In our data however, the observed TPA effects were not due to release of TPA acting on effector cells during the NK assay since TPA-treated K562 cell supernatants were unable to inhibit NK activity in control assays. Thus, TPA appears to decrease NK killing of malignant cells, both by depressing NK effector cells functions and by reducing the susceptibility to NK lysis of the target cells. In single-cell agarose assays, TPA-treated K562 cells demonstrated reduced NK-binding capacity and reduced sensitivity to lysis after binding. These defects could not be reversed by activation of the NK effector cells with interferon. The results here reported extend the previously suggested relations between the expression of NK-target structures and the differentiation stage of malignant cells. 相似文献

Heterogeneity of human NK cells: comparison of effectors that lyse HSV-1-infected fibroblasts and K562 erythroleukemia targets 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12

In this study, we compared the natural killer (NK) cells that lyse HSV-1-infected NK(HSV-1) or uninfected [NK-(FS)] fibroblasts to those that lyse K562 erythroleukemia cells [NK(K562)]. Activity against all three targets was found in Percoll gradient fractions enriched for large granular lymphocytes, which suggests that these effector cells have a common morphology. In competition studies between 51Cr-labeled targets and unlabeled targets, both the infected and the uninfected fibroblasts competed for lysis of NK(HSV-1) and NK(FS) activity, whereas K562 cells competed poorly. In contrast, when 51Cr-labeled K562 cells were used, the unlabeled K562 cells competed well, but HSV-1-infected and uninfected fibroblasts competed poorly. Panning studies and complement elimination experiments using monoclonal antibodies were performed to describe cell surface markers on the NK cell populations. Treatment with an antibody to an la framework antigen reduced NK(HSV-1) but not NK(K562) activity. In contrast, the majority of NK(K562) effectors were recognized by antibodies to the E-rosette receptor (Lyt-3 and OKT11A), whereas NK(HSV-1) activity was much less sensitive to this antibody. OKM1, OKT10, and Leu-7 (HNK-1) markers were found on a portion, but not all, of the cells that lysed both the HSV-FS and K562 targets, while treatment with HLA plus complement totally abrogated both NK activities. Taken together, these data are consistent with the concept that human NK cells are heterogeneous and that we are dealing with at least three subpopulations of effector cells--one that kills the infected or uninfected fibroblasts; one that kills K562 cells; and a third population that may be able to kill all three targets. Patient studies provide additional evidence for heterogeneity within the NK cells that lyse the fibroblasts and K562 cells. We have studied a number of individuals who have normal NK activity with one target (HSV-FS or K562) but have low or no activity against the other. These patients provide strong evidence not only that NK cells are heterogeneous but also that these NK subpopulations can be regulated independently of each other in vivo. 相似文献

Pretreatment of human K562 leukemia cells with rIFN-alpha and rIFN-gamma resulted in decreased susceptibility to lysis by human peripheral blood NK cells. The reduction of NK-susceptibility after IFN treatment was not due to a general effect of IFN on the stability of the cell membrane because the susceptibility of K562 cells to lysis by antibodies plus C, distilled water, or lysolecithin was unaffected. Binding studies with effector cell preparations enriched for NK cells with large granular lymphocyte morphology revealed no difference in binding to control and IFN-gamma-treated target cells. The sensitivity to soluble NK cytotoxic factors was not affected significantly by the IFN treatment. In contrast, the susceptibility of IFN-treated target cells to the cytotoxic activity of purified cytoplasmic granules from a rat large granular lymphocyte tumor was significantly reduced, indicating that the IFN-induced resistance acted at the level of susceptibility to the lytic mechanism of NK cells. However, IFN-alpha was more effective than IFN-gamma in inducing resistance to the cytoplasmic granules although resulting in only a weak resistance in the cell-mediated cytotoxic assay. IFN-gamma but not IFN-alpha caused a reduction in the frequency of effector cells that had reoriented their Golgi apparatus toward their bound target cell. In addition, IFN-gamma treated K562 cells failed to elicit an influx of Ca2+ into effector cells. Taken together, the results suggest that IFN-gamma in addition to an increased resistance to the lytic molecules released by NK cells can also induce changes in the target cells which prevent the triggering and activation of the effector cell. 相似文献

Glycosidic enzymes were used as probes to analyze the mechanism of NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. Pretreatment of nylon wool-enriched CBA/J spleen cells, a murine NK clone, or human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) with alpha-mannosidase, an exoglycosidase, led to a marked dose-dependent inhibition of NK lytic activity against YAC-1.2 or K562 tumor cells. Maximal inhibition occurred after a 60-min pretreatment of murine effectors at 37 degrees C, and the kinetics of NK inhibition by alpha-mannosidase was similar to the reported kinetics for enzymatic activity. Released hexose was detected chemically in the supernatant of mouse spleen cells treated with NK inhibitory dose of alpha-mannosidase, and inactivation of enzymatic function with EDTA reversed the NK inhibitory effect. These results suggest that alpha-mannosidase inhibited NK function by virtue of its enzymatic action. Culture of human PBL for 20-hr after treatment with this enzyme led to a greater than 70% recovery in NK lytic function. Recovery was blocked by incorporating tunicamycin, a glycosylation inhibitor of asparagine-linked glycoproteins, into the culture medium. These results suggest that the alpha-mannosidase-sensitive site may be de novo synthesized glycoprotein. Neuraminidase, beta-galactosidase, endo-beta-N-acetylglucosaminidase-D and H, and peptide-N-glycosidase treatments did not inhibit human NK cell lysis of K562 cells. Pretreatment of nylon wool-enriched CBA/J spleen cells or Percoll-enriched human LGL with alpha-mannosidase did not influence their capacity to bind YAC 1.2 target cells or K562 target cells, respectively, Ca++ pulse experiments revealed that the alpha-mannosidase-sensitive site on the NK cells was involved after target-effector binding but before the Ca++ influx. Pretreatment of effector cells with this enzyme which normally occurs after effector-target cell interaction. These results suggest that the phospholipid methylation reaction is coupled to the alpha-mannosidase-sensitive site on the NK cells. By analogy to other physiologic systems, such as histamine release in mast cells, the triggering of phospholipid methylation in the NK cells may serve as a mechanism for signal transduction across the plasma membrane. 相似文献

This investigation has employed the "innocent bystander" type of experimental design to determine whether soluble cytotoxic factor(s) are released during interactions between human peripheral blood lymphocytes (PBL) and NK-sensitive target cells. PBL cocultured with NK-sensitive Molt-4 or K562 target cells in the lower well of a miniaturized Marbrook culture released natural killer cytotoxic factors (NKCF), which diffused across a 0.2-mu Nucleopore membrane and lysed Molt-4 or K562 target cells cultured in the upper chamber. Coculture of PBL with the NK-resistant Raji or WI-L2 cell lines also induced release of NKCF. These factors were selectively cytotoxic to NK-sensitive targets and lysed Molt-4 and, to a lesser extent, K562 cells. However, Raji, WI-L2, and RPMI 1788 cells were all resistant to lysis. In addition, low density fractions from Percoll density gradients that were enriched for NK effector cells also released increased levels of NKCF during coculture with Molt-4 cells. Lysis of Molt-4 and K562 targets was observed after exposure to NKCF for 48 hr and 60 to 70 hr, respectively. Cellfree supernatants containing NKCF were obtained after a short time of incubation (i.e., within 5 hr of coculture of PBL with NK target cells). The factors were nondialyzable, stable at 56 degrees C for 3 hr, and showed partial loss of activity on storage at 4 degrees C or -20 degrees C for 7 days. These data suggest that NKCF may be involved in the lytic mechanism of human NK cell-mediated cytotoxicity. 相似文献

A new method was developed which allows for rapid (2 min) physical isolation of viable K562 target cells after being programmed to lyse (lethally hit) by purified human natural killer (NK) cells (LGL). To achieve this K562 cells which were obtained from the 34-36% interface of discontinuous Percoll gradients and purified human NK cells (LGL) which were obtained from the (43-45% Percoll) interface were employed. Using a Ca2+ pulse method and the separation of NK-K562 conjugates with EDTA and rapid centrifugation on Percoll gradients at 4 degrees C we could physically isolate the lethally hit K562 cells from the LGL allowing the study of the events leading to their subsequent lysis. Lysis of "purified" lethally hit K562 cells occurred in the absence of Ca2+ or Mg2+ and was blocked by reduced temperature (4 degrees C), or by the protease enzyme trypsin. When lethally hit targets were held at 4 degrees C (to block lysis) then rewarmed to 37 degrees C lysis ensued but with a rate slower than that of control cells not held at 4 degrees C. These data support the concept that transfer of protease-sensitive and possibly temperature-dependent structures from the NK cell to the target is a requisite step in NK cytolysis. 相似文献

Natural killer (NK) cells can spontaneously kill various malignantcells, but the susceptibility towards NK cells differs greatlyamong different types of tumour cells. The molecules, whichare recognized by NK cells, have not yet been identified, butthere is ample evidence that target cell surface glycoconjugatesare involved in the interaction with NK cells. In this report,we show that the recognition of K562 target cells by human NKcells depends on the presence of protein-bound determinants,implying that glycolipids are not the primary target structureson K562 cells. The NK susceptibility of K562 cells was not alteredby enzymic removal of various cell surface carbohydrates oroligosaccharides, mostly related to N-linked carbohydrate chains.Treatment of K562 cells with 1-deoxynojirimycin and 1-deoxymannojirimycin,inhibitors of N-glycan processing, resulted in drastic alterationsin the carbohydrate phenotype of the cell surface, as couldbe shown by flow cytometric analysis of the lectin-binding propertiesof the cells. Despite these clear changes in N-glycosylation,the NK susceptibility of K562 cells remained unaffected. Summarizing,the results described in this report show that potential targetstructures for NK cells are protein bound, but the involvementof a specific (N-linked) carbohydrate determinant in the interactionbetween NK cells and target cells could not be established. cell adhesion molecules cellcell interaction cell surface glycoconjugates natural killer cells target structures 相似文献

The interaction between human natural killer (NK) cells and NK-susceptible target cells, as well as the mechanism involved in target cell lysis, were studied with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Low density human peripheral blood lymphocytes, highly enriched with large granular lymphocytes (LGL), were used as effector cells, and K562-cells were used as NK-susceptible target cells. The surface features of LGL/NK cells were examined under SEM. In the area of interaction, NK/target-cell conjugates showed microvilli and/or filipodia, and extensive areas of intercellular contact. In addition, the effector cells in some NK/target-cell conjugates were polarized toward the target cell. Changes in target cell surface features included loss of microvilli, large surface blebs and the appearance of small pore-like lesions on the cell membrane. Our findings show that target cell lysis occurred by apoptosis and plasma membrane lesions analogous to those seen during complement-mediated cytotoxicity. 相似文献
