In addition to the beneficial effect of KIR2DS1 in pregnancy, ne of the most interesting observations in the past decade in individuals who carry the KIR-B haplotype have a significantly Oreproductive immunology research is that women who have improved outcome after viral infections (14, 15).

This expansion has resulted in a number of highly similar genes densely packed within each complex. The genes can be highly polymorphic and encode for fundamentally important receptors for controlling the functional response of NK cells. Understanding the nature of transcription of the LRC and NKC genes is required to confirm existing gene models, predicted functional status and also their distribution in cell and tissue types.

For this reason, the determination of the optimal cytotoxic activation of the different NK cell subsets can be a crucial aspect to be exploited to counter cancer cells in oncologic patients. To evaluate how the triggering of different combination of activating receptors can affect the cytotoxic responses of different NK cell subsets, we developed a microbead-based degranulation assay. By using this new assay, we were able to detect CD107a+ degranulating NK cells even within the less cytotoxic subsets (i.e., resting CD56bright and unlicensed CD56dim NK cells), thus demonstrating its high sensitivity.

Employing a sensitive array-based bioassay where patient plasma is used to induce transcriptional responses in healthy leukocytes, we previously reported disease-specific, partially IL-1 dependent, signatures associated with pre and recent onset (RO) T1D relative to unrelated healthy controls (uHC).
