The role of the natural Killer cells [NK] in the immunological aspects of the aetiology of
diabetes has been studied. The NK cells were probed by the monoclonal antibody anti-HNKi …

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 20 Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic patients
were examined for natural killer cell activity using the K562 cell line as 51 Cr labeled targets …

Peripheral blood mononuclear cells from 14 type 1 diabetic patients were examined for
natural killer cell activity using the K562 cell line as 51Cr labeled targets. Mean cytotoxicity …

Viruses may cause Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetes. We wondered whether the number
and function of natural killer cells, which are important in anti-viral defense, are disturbed in …

Abstract Aims/Introduction Natural killer (NK) cells are cytotoxic lymphocytes critical to
human immunity. Previous studies showed correlations between NK cell function and blood …

Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate the changes and clinical significance of
the invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells and their subsets in peripheral blood of newly …

Chronic low-grade inflammation is crucial for the development of insulin resistance and type
2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM), and immunocompetent cells, such as T-cells, B-cells, mast cells …

Aims Natural killer (NK) cells are important innate cytotoxic lymphocytes and can contribute
to the immune response through the synthesis and secrete proinflammatory cytokines. In the …

A numerical and functional deficit of natural killer T (NKT) cells has been reported to be
associated with the pathogenesis of Caucasian patients with type 1 diabetes. However, a …

ABSTRACT BACKGROUND: Diabetes is a metabolic disorder characterized by chronic
hyperglycemia. Patients of diabetes mellitus are managed by two basic drug regimens …
