Increased Susceptibility to Apoptosis of CD56dimCD16+ NK Cells Induces the Enrichment of IFN-γ-Producing CD56bright Cells in Tuberculous Pleurisy

Abstract: Tuberculous pleuritis is a good model for the study of specific cells at the site of active Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. We investigated the frequency and phenotype of NK cells in paired samples of peripheral blood and pleural fluid (PF) from patients with tuberculosis (TB) or parapneumonic infection. We demonstrated for the first time a reduction of NK cells in PF from TB with an enrichment in the CD56brightCD16− subset. In agreement, in PF NK cells we observed an increased expression of CD94, … Show more

“…Herein, by using short-time monokine-stimulated primary NK cells, we found that these cells have the capacity to up-regulate T-bet and IFN-g expression driving Th1 polarization of CD4 1 cells and to induce CD69 expression on CD4 1 T cells in an ICAM-1-dependent fashion. In addition, we also found that NK cells form conjugates with T cells in an ICAM-1 dependent way, as previously observed with Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes [50] and with [10,11,36], we were able to show that endogenous up-regulation of ICAM-1 by pass the requirement of in vitro NK pre-activation and was indeed sufficient to enhance CD69 expression in PF-T cells.In summary, we demonstrate that ICAM-1/LFA-1 are differentially expressed between PB-and PF-NK cells being CD56 bright ICAM-1 high cells the major NK population within TB-PF, and also the producers of . Moreover, herein we provide evidence of another mechanism mediated by endogenously activated NK cells, specifically, T-cell costimulation through ICAM-1.…”

“…Functionally, CD56 bright cells are effective cytokine producers, whereas CD56 dim cells are efficient effectors of natural and Ab-dependent target cell lysis. Recently, we have described that an endogenously activated pleural fluid NK (PF-NK) population is a major source of IFN-g in response to Mtb [10,11]. Consistently, PF-NK are enriched in CD56 bright cells, as has been observed in other chronic inflammatory sites [12,13] or in tumor-affected tissues [14].…”

“…Thus, CD56 bright NK cells are highly enriched and activated within synovial fluid from patients with psoriatic arthritis and rheumatoid arthritis (RA),122, 123 as well as in inflamed tissues in tuberculosis 124. Similarly, MAIT cells are also well established to be recruited to sites of inflammation,81, 125 and have been found to be enriched in the synovial fluid of patients with ankylosing spondylitis126 and RA127.…”
