ABSTRACT

Inhibitory Killer Immunoglobulin-like Receptors (iKIR) interact with their ligands, HLA molecules, to license Natural Killer (NK) cells for functional competence. Previous studies stimulating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) with the HLA-devoid K562 cell line revealed that NK cells from individuals with an iKIR encoded by the KIR3DL1 locus with self HLA-Bw4 as their ligands, had higher frequencies of tri-functional NK cells that expressed the degranulation marker CD107a and secreted Interferon-γ and Tumor Necrosis Factor-α than those from individuals who were homozygous for HLA-Bw6 alleles, which are not ligands for these iKIR. To assess the effect of other iKIR to self-HLA (S-iKIR) on the NK cell response, we compared HIV-infected slow progressors (SP) carrying S-iKIR to HLA-C alleles with or without S-iKIR to HLA-Bw4. We show that S-iKIR to HLA-B and C alleles differ in their contribution to NK cell functional potential in HIV-infected SP upon stimulation with K562 targets.
