Abstract
Natural killer (NK) cells recognize virally infected cells and tumors. NK cell function depends on balanced signaling from activating receptors, recognizing products from tumors or viruses, and inhibitory receptors (such as KIR/Ly49), which recognize major histocompatibility complex class I (MHC-I) molecules. KIR/Ly49 signaling preserves tolerance to self but also conveys reactivity toward MHC-I-low target cells in a process known as NK cell education. Here, we found that NK cell tolerance and education were determined by the subcellular localization of the tyrosine phosphatase SHP-1. In mice lacking MHC-I molecules, uneducated, self-tolerant Ly49A+ NK cells showed accumulation of SHP-1 in the activating immune synapse, where it colocalized with F-actin and the signaling adaptor protein SLP-76. Education of Ly49A+ NK cells by the MHC-I molecule H2Dd led to reduced synaptic accumulation of SHP-1, accompanied by augmented signaling from activating receptors. Education was also linked to reduced transcription of Ptpn6, which encodes SHP-1. Moreover, synaptic SHP-1 accumulation was reduced in NK cells carrying the H2Dd-educated receptor Ly49G2 but not in those carrying the noneducating receptor Ly49I. Colocalization of Ly49A and SHP-1 outside of the synapse was more frequent in educated compared with uneducated NK cells, suggesting a role for Ly49A in preventing synaptic SHP-1 accumulation in NK cell education. Thus, distinct patterning of SHP-1 in the activating NK cell synapse may determine NK cell tolerance.

Abstract
Cytomegalovirus (CMV) reactivation remains a common opportunistic infection with a prominent role in immune reconstitution in organ transplant recipients. CMVs as important drivers of natural killer (NK) cell differentiation has been indicated to prompt several phenotypic and functional alteration in these cells. We aimed to monitor the reconstitution of NK cells and change the signature of inflammatory proteins at the critical phase of CMV reactivation over six months after kidney transplantation. The present study indicated that CMV reactivation is associated with the development of IL-6, IL-10, and cytotoxic granules, including granzyme-B and granulysin, and the drop in the frequency of CD16 + NKG2A-CD57 + NK cell subset in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) with reactivation versus non- reactivated ones. Our findings describe distinct immune signatures that emerged with CMV reactivation after kidney transplantation, which may be helpful in the timely management of CMV infection in KTRs.

Human CD56 dimCD16 dim Cells As an Individualized Natural Killer Cell Subset. Front Immunol 2017; 8:699.

Abstract
Human natural killer (NK) cells can be subdivided in several subpopulations on the basis of the relative expression of the adhesion molecule CD56 and the activating receptor CD16. Whereas blood CD56brightCD16dim/− NK cells are classically viewed as immature precursors and cytokine producers, the larger CD56dimCD16bright subset is considered as the most cytotoxic one. In peripheral blood of healthy donors, we noticed the existence of a population of CD56dimCD16dim NK cells that was frequently higher in number than the CD56bright subsets and even expanded in occasional control donors but also in transporter associated with antigen processing-deficient patients, two familial hemophagocytic lymphohistiocytosis type II patients, and several common variable immunodeficiency patients. This population was detected but globally reduced in a longitudinal cohort of 18 HIV-1-infected individuals. Phenotypically, the new subset contained a high percentage of relatively immature cells, as reflected by a significantly stronger representation of NKG2A+ and CD57− cells compared to their CD56dimCD16bright counterparts. The phenotype of the CD56dimCD16dim population was differentially affected by HIV-1 infection as compared to the other NK cell subsets and only partly restored to normal by antiretroviral therapy. From the functional point of view, sorted CD56dimCD16dim cells degranulated more than CD56dimCD16bright cells but less than CD56dimCD16− NK cells. The population was also identified in various organs of immunodeficient mice with a human immune system (“humanized” mice) reconstituted from human cord blood stem cells. In conclusion, the CD56dimCD16dim NK cell subpopulation displays distinct phenotypic and functional features. It remains to be clarified if these cells are the immediate precursors of the CD56dimCD16bright subset or placed somewhere else in the NK cell differentiation and maturation pathway.

Human natural killer cell maturation defect supports in vivo CD56(bright) to CD56(dim) lineage development. PLoS One 2012; 7:e51677.

Abstract
Two populations of human natural killer (NK) cells can be identified in peripheral blood. The majority are CD3−CD56dim cells while the minority exhibits a CD3−CD56bright phenotype. In vitro evidence indicates that CD56bright cells are precursors of CD56dim cells, but in vivo evidence is lacking. Here, we studied NK cells from a patient that suffered from a melanoma and opportunistic fungal infection during childhood. The patient exhibited a stable phenotype characterized by a reduction in the frequency of peripheral blood CD3−CD56dim NK cells, accompanied by an overt increase in the frequency and absolute number of CD3−CD56bright cells. These NK cells exhibited similar expression of perforin, CD57 and CD158, the major activating receptors CD16, NKp46, NKG2D, DNAM-1, and 2B4, as well as the inhibitory receptor CD94/NKG2A, on both CD56bright and CD56dim NK cells as healthy controls. Also, both NK cell subpopulations produced IFN-γ upon stimulation with cytokines, and CD3−CD56dim NK cells degranulated in response to cytokines or K562 cells. However, upon stimulation with cytokines, a substantial fraction of CD56dim cells failed to up-regulate CD57 and CD158, showed a reduction in the percentage of CD16+ cells, and CD56bright cells did not down-regulate CD62L, suggesting that CD56dim cells could not acquire a terminally differentiated phenotype and that CD56bright cells exhibit a maturation defect that might result in a potential altered migration pattern. These observations, support the notion that NK cells of this patient display a maturation/activation defect that precludes the generation of mature NK cells at a normal rate accompanied by CD56dim NK cells that cannot completely acquire a terminally differentiated phenotype. Thus, our results provide evidence that support the concept that in vivo CD56bright NK cells differentiate into CD56dim NK cells, and contribute to further understand human NK cell ontogeny.

Abstract
Herein we report the case of a 20-year-old woman who presented with multiple skin ulcers on her legs, severe pansinusitis, and chronic lung disease. She was initially thought to have Wegener's granulomatosis (WG). However, serologic studies indicated an HLA class I deficiency, which was confirmed by flow cytometry. Complementation studies and reverse transcriptase-polymerase chain reaction followed by direct DNA sequencing revealed a mutation in the gene encoding subunit 1 of the peptide transporter associated with antigen processing (TAP1). This mutation, which has not been previously described in the literature, results in a stop codon in the catalytic domain of TAP1. Although TAP mutations are rare, clinicians may encounter them in the evaluation of patients with suspected WG. In patients with WG-like symptoms it is important to consider this alternative genetic diagnosis as early as possible, not only so that appropriate antibiotic therapy can be initiated to prevent bronchiectasis, but also to avoid inappropriate immunosuppressive therapy that worsens the disease.
