IL-2 Combined with IL-15 Enhanced the Expression of NKG2D Receptor on Patient Autologous NK Cells to Inhibit Wilms' Tumor via MAPK Signaling Pathway.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

The dysfunction of immune surveillance, a hot spot in cancer research, could lead to the occurrence and development in multicancers. However, the potential mechanisms of immunity in Wilms' tumor (WT) remain unclear on Wilms' tumor (WT). In this study, we aim to investigate the immune cell in WT and explore the underlying treatment strategy.

Method

We quantified stromal and immune scores by using ESTIMATE algorithm based on gene expression matrix of WT patients in TCGA and GEO databases. Different expression genes (DEGs) and functional enrichments were analyzed by R studio and DAVID tools. Flow cytometry, immunofluorescence staining, ELISA assay, and qRT-PCR were used for detecting the NK cells, cytotoxic cytokines (INF-γ, PRF, and GZMB), and NK cell receptor
