Transcription profiling of mouse NK cells in presence/absence of activated CD8 T cells

ABSTRACT: we compare NK cells in presence of activated CD8 T cells or not. Although both natural killer (NK) cells and CD8 T cells are capable of anti-tumor responses, Recombinase Activating Gene (RAG)-deficient mice, which have a normal component of NK cells, are incapable of rejecting the P815 mastocytoma tumor. We established a model where monoclonal CD8 T cell reactivity was restricted to the tumor antigen (Ag) P1A expressed on the P815 mastocytoma. Reconstitution of the RAG-deficient mice with these (TCRP1A) T cells conferred resistance to tumor growth selectively for the P1A-expressing, but not for a P1A-negative variant of P815. Nevertheless, TCRP1A CD8 T cells were efficient and necessary to promote the NK cell dependent rejection of P1A-negative tumors when both P1A-positive and -negative t
