RESUMEN

The killer-cell immunoglobulin-like receptor(KIR) gene family exhibits complex genetic diversity. In addition to allele level polymorphisms, KIR genes show extra diversity at haplotype content as well as copy number variation. In order to standardize the KIR gene testing, the Working Party on Histocompatibility, Chinese Society of Blood Transfusion (CSBT)and Shenzhen Blood Center organized experts to discuss and reach a consensus on KIR gene testing based on KIR-related literature and practical experience. The present consensus has summarized the techniques for identifying the diversity of KIR genes, quality control, testing report and its applications, aiming to improve the accuracy of KIR gene testing results.

RESUMEN

【Objective】 To investigate the polymorphism of KIR2DL4 gene in northern Chinese Han population. 【Methods】 A total of 327 DNA samples were isolated by magnetic beads from unrelated individuals of northern Chinese Han population. The coding sequence (CDS) of KIR2DL4 were amplified using four pairs of KIR2DL4-specific PCR primers developed by our own KIR sequencing-based typing patent, and each exon of KIR2DL4 carried by the four PCR amplicons was then subjected to DNA Sanger sequencing in both directions. The genotype of each sample was assigned using the Assign 4.7 software. 【Results】 Among 327 individuals, 8 different kinds of KIR2DL4 alleles were detected, with observed frequencies ranked as KIR2DL4*00102 [77.1%(252/327)], *00501 [35.8%(117/327)], *011 [20.2%(66/327)], *00602 [12.5%(41/327)], *00801 [8.6%(28/327)], *00103 [4.9%(16/327)], *00503 [1.5%(5/327)] and *00504 [0.9%(3/327)]. In this study, the 10A type alleles which can encode a full membrane-bound receptor include 2DL4*00102, *00103, *00501, *00503, *00504 and *00602, whereas the 9A type alleles which produce truncated forms of receptor include 2DL4*00801 and *011. The observed frequencies for 10A and 9A type KIR2DL4 alleles were 97.6% (319/327) and 27.8% (91/327), respectively. The ratio of 10A to 9A type was 3.5: 1. The observed frequencies of KIR2DL4 alleles in northern Chinese Han population showed no significant difference compared with southern Chinese Han population (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 The allelic diversity of KIR2DL4 elucidated in the present study can provide valuable data for KIR-associated disease studies and human evolution.

RESUMEN

The killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) is located in 100-200kb region of the leukocyte receptor complex (LRC) on chromosome 19. KIR, mainly expresses on the surface of natural killer (NK) cells, is divided into inhibitory and activated receptor in function. Tumor cells could evade the killing of NK cells by regulating down the expression of HLA molecules on the cell surface. KIR molecules regulate the killing effect of NK cells by combining with human leukocyte antigen (HLA) to conduct inhibitory and active signals. In recent years, KIR and its immune regulation on tumors have become a research hotspot. The article reviews the research progress of KIR and its association with tumors, especially the correlation between KIR and high incidence of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC) in Guangdong and Guangxi of China.

RESUMEN

Objective@#To establish a real-time PCR (RT-PCR) assay for detecting mRNA expression of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) 2DS1 gene( KIR2DS1 ) on the surface of natural killer (NK) cells, and evaluate its performance. @*Methods@#A total of 57 recipient-donor pairs of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (Allo-HSCT) were enrolled in this study. The specific primers and probe of KIR2DS1 gene were designed for Taqman-MGB fluorescence quantitative PCR detection system. The performance parameters of the detecting system, such as coincidence rate, repeatability, sensitivity, scope of application of the instrument and reproducibility of operation technicians were evaluated and validated. @*Results@#The KIR-SSO Genotyping Test was used as the gold standard. The results of 35 samples showed the accuracies of self-built method were all 100% for both of positive and negative KIR2DS1 . Three samples with high, median and low value of Ct values were used to verify the repeatability. The coefficients of variation of intra-assay and inter-assay were ranged from 0.09% to 0.46% and 0.71% to 1.13% respectively. The sensitivity of the established method was up to 10 2 copies/μL at least. The coefficients of variation of the three samples with sensitivity of 10 2 copies/μL were 5.37%, 2.71% and 5.51% in five repeated tests respectively. The regression analysis for the samples measured by ABI-7500 and LC-480 fluorescence quantitative PCR instrument showed regression equation was Y=0.973 6X+0.118 3 (R 2 =0.961 9, R 2 >0.95). The reproducibility of 10 samples with positive KIR2DS1 operated by two technicians showed that the biases were all less than ±5%. @*Conclusion@#A TaqMan-MGB real-time PCR assay for detection of mRNA expression of KIR2DS1 gene was established successfully with fine performance.

RESUMEN

Objective To investigate the effects of methylated CpG islands in the promoter region on the expression of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor 3DL1 (KIR3DL1).Methods Three voluntary unpaid blood donors carrying high expression allele KIR 3DL1*01502 and three donors carrying low expres-sion allele KIR3DL1*005 were recruited in this study .The nucleotide sequences and the methylated CpG islands in the promoter regions of KIR 3DL1*01502 allele and KIR3DL1*005 allele were analyzed .The NK cells expressing KIR3DL1*01502 and KIR3DL1*005 were respectively treated with 5-aza for the dem-ethylation of CpG islands within the promoters .The expression of KIR3DL1 protein on the surface of NK cells was measured with flow cytometer .Results Two differences at nucleotide sites -65 and -269 were detected within the promoter regions of KIR3DL1*01502 and KIR3DL1*005, resulting in two distinct CpG islands.The CpG islands within the promoter of KIR 3DL1*01502 allele were highly methylated .The ex-pression of KIR3DL1 protein on NK cells which carried KIR 3DL1*01502 allele was significantly increased after the demethylation of CpG islands .However , the treatment of demethylation had no significant effects on the expression KIR3DL1 protein on NK cells harboring KIR3DL1*005 allele.Conclusion The methylated CpG islands within the promoter of KIR 3DL1*01502 allele affected the antigen expression on the surface of NK cells.Different KIR3DL1 alleles might show different mechanisms in regulating antigen expression .

RESUMEN

Objective To assess the association between killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) gene polymorphisms and the risk of hypertension in autoimmune mechanism.Methods We conducted a case-control study including 205 hypertensives and 205 controls matched with sex and age,from a community-based population.KIR genes of all subjects were genotyped by polymerase chain reaction with sequence-specific primers (PCR-SSP).Conditional logistic regression model and generalized multifactor dimensionality reduction (GMDR) method were used to estimate the association among KIR gene polymorphisms and the risk of hypertension.Results The genotypic frequencies of KIRs were not significantly different between the hypertensives and the control groups (P>0.05).Among all the models of GMDR concerning the association between interactions of KIR genes and essential hypertension,the testing accuracy of the interaction between K/R2DS2 and KIR2DS3 was the highest (55.13%),with cross-validation consistency as 10/10 (P=0.054).Results from the conditional logistic regression showed that individuals with KIR2DS2 +:KIR2DS3-were significantly associated with an increased risk on hypertension (OR=2.555,95%CI:1.203-5.429,P=0.015).However,individuals with KIR2DS2 +:KIR2DS3 + were significantly associated with a reduced risk of hypertension (0R=0.268,95% CI:0.088-0.815,P=0.020).Individuals with KIR2DS2-KIR2DS3 + did not seem to be associated with the risk of hypertension (0R=1.602,95% C I:0.785-3.266,P=0.195),when compared to the KIR2DS2-KIR2DS3-group.Interactions between KIR2DS2 and KIR2DS3 were significantly associated with the risk of hypertension,after adjusted for BMI,smoking,drinking and family history of hypertension (OR=0.065,95%CI:0.013-0.317,P=0.001).Conclusion Individuals with KIR2DS2 and no KIR2DS3 were associated with the increased risk of hypertension.KIR2DS2 that coexisted with KIR2DS3 were associated with the reduced risk of hypertension.Antagonism between KIR2DS2 and KIR2DS3 might serve as a protect factor for hypertension.

RESUMEN

Much of the success of hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) has been due to the ability to overcome posttransplant complications, by performing HLA genotypically matched or even mismatched sibling donor HSCT or unrelated donor HSCT. Based on the promising results with using vigorously T-cell-depleted high-dose peripheral blood stem cell transplants by the Perugia University group, several methods to eradicate refractory leukemic cells have been employed worldwide. However, there are limitations of the existing data regarding haploidentical HSCT, that is, the small numbers of patients and the heterogeneous patient populations in most of the published series. Also, researchers have not exactly demonstrated the effect of natural killer (NK) cell alloreactivity in various settings of allogeneic HSCT. In reality, haploidentical HSCT is possible without T-cell depletion. However, it isn't clear whether reduced-intensity HSCT from a haploidentical related donor or a mismatched unrelated donor is feasible. Anyhow, successfully overcoming the major histocompatibility barriers with using related or unrelated donors means that virtually all patients would have an immediately available donor for desperately needed HSCT. The full potential of haploidentical HSCT may be ultimately achieved through a better understanding of the transplant immunology, including the Korean specificity of killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor polymorphism. Further study and better support from Korean government insurance coverage that would offer HSCT to more patients in need of transplant and cultivating an optimal NK alloreaction without detrimental complications is urgently required.

RESUMEN

BACKGROUND: Psoriasis is a multifactorial autoimmune skin disease with a pathogenesis that has remained obscure. Recently, T cells bearing natural killer receptors (NKRs) were precisely and strongly targeted as new putative pathogenic immunocytes in psoriasis. Among NKRs, killer cell immunoglobulin-like receptor (KIR) is the major molecule recognizing HLA class I allotypes and might be closely related to psoriasis. METHODS: To investigate the association of KIR genotype and patients with psoriasis in Korean, we defined the 14 KIR genotypes in 96 patients with psoriasis and 86 healthy controls using PCR-SSP methods. RESULTS: The frequencies of KIR2DS4 and KIR3DL1 were significantly decreased in psoriasis compared with controls (RR=0.21, p or =30 years) respectively, these phenomena were similarly observed independent of groups divided (type I: RR=0.26, p<0.005; type II: RR=0.14, p<0.0006). When the patients were divided into subgroups according to the age of onset and family history, the frequencies of KIR2DS4, KIR3DL1, and KIR2DS3 were significantly decreased in type I compared with type II psoriasis (3DL1, 2DS4: p<0.004; 2DS3: p<0.04) and were significantly decreased in psoriasis without family history compared to with family history (3DL1, 2DS4: p<0.007; 2DS3: p<0.05). The frequency of haplotype combination BB was significantly increased in psoriasis compared with controls (RR=2.74, p<0.009). CONCLUSION: These results suggest that KIR genotype is a factor for the occurrence and development of psoriasis and in future how combinations of HLA and KIR genes influence psoriasis needs to be defined.
