| 1 | 16223768 | NK-cell activation by LIGHT triggers tumor-specific CD8+ T-cell immunity to reject established tumors. |
| 2 | 16223768 | We now demonstrate that the TNF superfamily member, LIGHT, known as TNFSF14 and a T-cell costimulatory molecule, is a critical ligand for the activation of NK cells. |
| 3 | 16223768 | Herpesvirus entry mediator (HVEM) is expressed on NK cells, and its engagement with LIGHT mediates NK-cell activation. |
| 4 | 16223768 | Interestingly, activated NK cells do not kill tumors directly but can facilitate the priming of tumor-specific CD8+ T cells in an IFN-gamma-dependent manner. |
| 5 | 16223768 | Conversely, intratumor depletion of either NK cells or IFN-gamma during tumor progression disrupts CD8+ cell-mediated tumor rejection, suggesting that the tumor is the essential site for the crosstalk between NK and CD8+ cells. |
| 6 | 16223768 | Furthermore, IFNG-deficient NK cells fail to effectively activate CD8+ T cells, suggesting IFN-gamma plays an important role in NK-mediated activation of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs). |
| 7 | 16223768 | Our findings establish a direct role for LIGHT in NK activation/expansion and a critical helper role of activated NK cells in priming CD8+ T cells and breaking T-cell tolerance at the tumor site. |
| 8 | 15115612 | LIGHT sensitizes IFN-gamma-mediated apoptosis of HT-29 human carcinoma cells through both death receptor and mitochondria pathways. |
| 9 | 15115612 | LIGHT [homologous to lymphotoxins, shows inducible expression, and competes with herpes simplex virus glycoprotein D for herpes virus entry mediator (HVEM/TR2)] is a new member of TNF superfamily. |
| 10 | 15115612 | The HT-29 colon cancer cell line is the most sensitive to LIGHT-induced, IFNg-mediated apoptosis among the cell lines we have examined so far. |
| 11 | 15115612 | Besides downregulation of Bcl-XL, upregulation of Bak, and activation of both PARP [poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase] and DFF45 (DNA fragmentation factor), LIGHT-induced, IFNg-mediated apoptosis of HT-29 cells involves extensive caspase activation. |
| 12 | 15115612 | Caspase-8 and caspase-9 activation, as shown by their cleavages appeared as early as 24 h after treatment, whereas caspase-3 and caspase-7 activation, as shown by their cleavages occurred after 72 h of LIGHT treatment. |
| 13 | 15115612 | Caspase-3 inhibitor Z-DEVD-FMK (benzyloxycarbonyl-Asp-Glu-Val-Asp-fluoromethylketone) and a broad range caspase inhibitor Z-VAD-FMK (benzyloxycarbonyl-Val-Ala-Asp fluoromethylketone) were able to block LIGHT-induced, IFNg-mediated apoptosis of HT-29 cells. |
| 14 | 15115612 | These results suggest that LIGHT-induced, IFNg-mediated apoptosis of HT-29 cells is caspase-dependent, and LIGHT signaling is mediated through both death receptor and mitochondria pathways. |
