Plasmodium falciparum-infected erythrocytes and IL-12/IL-18 induce diverse transcriptomes in human NK cells: IFN-α/β pathway versus TREM signaling.
The protective immunity of natural killer (NK) cells against malarial infections is thought to be due to early production of type II interferon (IFN) and possibly direct NK cell cytotoxicity. To better understand this mechanism, a microarray analysis was conducted on NK cells from healthy donors PBM...

The protective immunity of natural killer (NK) cells against malarial infections is thought to be due to early production of type II interferon (IFN) and possibly direct NK cell cytotoxicity.

A very similar pattern of gene expression was observed among all donors for each treatment in three replicas. Parasites particularly modulated genes involved in IFN-α/β signaling as well as molecules involved in the activation of interferon regulatory factors, pathways known to play a role in the antimicrobial immune response.
