Angiogenesis is essential for the progression of tumor growth and metastasis. The tumor microenvironment (TME) has immunosuppressive properties, which con- tribute to tumor expansion and angiogenesis. Similarly, the uterine microenvironment (UME) exerts a tolerogenic (immunosuppressive) and proangiogenic effect on its cells, promoting implantation and development of the embryo and placenta. In the TME and UME natural killer (NK) cells, which otherwise are capable of killing target cells autonomously, enter a state of reduced cytotoxicity or anergy. Both TME and UME are rich with factors (e.g., TGF-β, glycodelin, hypoxia), which support a conversion of NK cells to the low/non-cytotoxic, proangiogenic CD56brightCD16low phenotype. It is plausible that the phenomenon of acquiring proangiogenic and low cytotoxic features by NK cells is not only limited to cancer but is a common feature of different angiogenesis-dependent diseases (ADDs). In this review, we will discuss the role of NK cells in angiogenesis disturbances associated Citation: Radomska-Le´sniewska, D.M.; with cancer and other selected ADDs. Expanding the knowledge of the mechanisms responsible Białoszewska, A.; Kami´nski,P. for angiogenesis and its disorders contributes to a better understanding of ADDs and may have Angiogenic Properties of NK therapeutic implications.

  • CD226 T Cells Expressing the Receptors TIGIT and Divergent Phenotypes of Human Regulatory
    The Journal of Immunology Divergent Phenotypes of Human Regulatory T Cells Expressing the Receptors TIGIT and CD226 Christopher A. Fuhrman,*,1 Wen-I Yeh,*,1 Howard R. Seay,* Priya Saikumar Lakshmi,* Gaurav Chopra,† Lin Zhang,* Daniel J. Perry,* Stephanie A. McClymont,† Mahesh Yadav,† Maria-Cecilia Lopez,‡ Henry V. Baker,‡ Ying Zhang,x Yizheng Li,{ Maryann Whitley,{ David von Schack,x Mark A. Atkinson,* Jeffrey A. Bluestone,‡ and Todd M. Brusko* Regulatory T cells (Tregs) play a central role in counteracting inflammation and autoimmunity. A more complete understanding of cellular heterogeneity and the potential for lineage plasticity in human Treg subsets may identify markers of disease pathogenesis and facilitate the development of optimized cellular therapeutics. To better elucidate human Treg subsets, we conducted direct transcriptional profiling of CD4+FOXP3+Helios+ thymic-derived Tregs and CD4+FOXP3+Helios2 T cells, followed by comparison with CD4+FOXP32Helios2 T conventional cells. These analyses revealed that the coinhibitory receptor T cell Ig and ITIM domain (TIGIT) was highly expressed on thymic-derived Tregs. TIGIT and the costimulatory factor CD226 bind the common ligand CD155. Thus, we analyzed the cellular distribution and suppressive activity of isolated subsets of CD4+CD25+CD127lo/2 T cells expressing CD226 and/or TIGIT. We observed TIGIT is highly expressed and upregulated on Tregs after activation and in vitro expansion, and is associated with lineage stability and suppressive capacity. Conversely, the CD226+TIGIT2 population was associated with reduced Treg purity and suppressive capacity after expansion, along with a marked increase in IL-10 and effector cytokine production. These studies provide additional markers to delineate functionally distinct Treg subsets that may help direct cellular therapies and provide important phenotypic markers for assessing the role of Tregs in health and disease.

  • CD Markers Are Routinely Used for the Immunophenotyping of Cells
    ptglab.com 1 CD MARKER ANTIBODIES www.ptglab.com Introduction The cluster of differentiation (abbreviated as CD) is a protocol used for the identification and investigation of cell surface molecules. So-called CD markers are routinely used for the immunophenotyping of cells. Despite this use, they are not limited to roles in the immune system and perform a variety of roles in cell differentiation, adhesion, migration, blood clotting, gamete fertilization, amino acid transport and apoptosis, among many others. As such, Proteintech’s mini catalog featuring its antibodies targeting CD markers is applicable to a wide range of research disciplines. PRODUCT FOCUS PECAM1 Platelet endothelial cell adhesion of blood vessels – making up a large portion molecule-1 (PECAM1), also known as cluster of its intracellular junctions.

  • BD Pharmingen™ Purified Mouse Anti-CD247 (Py142)
    BD Pharmingen™ Technical Data Sheet Purified Mouse anti-CD247 (pY142) Product Information Material Number: 558402 Alternate Name: CD3ζ Size: 0.1 mg Concentration: 0.5 mg/ml Clone: K25-407.69 Immunogen: Phosphorylated Human CD3ζ Peptide Isotype: Mouse IgG2a, κ Reactivity: QC Testing: Human Target MW: 21 kDa Storage Buffer: Aqueous buffered solution containing ≤0.09% sodium azide. Description The T cell receptor (TCR), expressed by thymocytes and T lymphocytes, is a multi-component cell-surface complex responsible for recognizing antigen in the context of MHC molecules. The antigen-specific binding component of the TCR, Ti, is a heterodimer of the variable Ig-like subunits a and b or g and d. Ti is non-covalently associated with an invariant set of molecules referred to as the CD3 polypeptides, g, d, e, and ζ. The CD3 z polypeptide (CD3z) was named CD247 at the 7th Human Leukocyte Differentiation Antigens Workshop. CD3 appears early in thymocyte differentiation and remains expressed on all mature T lymphocytes. After antigen recognition by the TCR, CD3z is the primary intracellular signal transducing subunit. It contains three ITAMs (Immunoreceptor Tyrosine-based Activation Motifs), each of which contains a pair of tyrosine residues that are phosphorylated by Lck and Fyn and are required for signal propagation. The molecular weight of CD3z is 16 kDa, and it is also observed as 32-kDa homodimers or as heterodimers with the g chain of Fc receptors. Upon phosphorylation, the CD3z monomer undergoes an apparent shift in electrophoretic mobility up to 21 kDa. The K25-407.69 monoclonal antibody recognizes the phosphorylated tyrosine 142 (pY142) in the third ITAM domain of human CD3z (CD247).
