| Abstract | Natural killer (NK) cells from certain rat strains promptly kill MHC allogeneic lymphocytes in vivo, a rejection phenomenon termed allogeneic lymphocyte cytotoxicity (ALC). ALC can be reproduced in vitro, and is preferentially mediated by a subset of NK cells expressing the Ly49 stimulatory receptor 3 (Ly49s3) in PVG strain rats. Functional studies have suggested that Ly49s3 triggers NK cell alloreactivity, but its importance relative to other Ly49 receptors has not been investigated. In this study, we have characterized three rat Ly49 receptors with close sequence similarity to Ly49s3 in the extracellular region, i.e., Ly49s4, Ly49 inhibitory receptor 3 (Ly49i3), and Ly49i4. Similar to Ly49s3, Ly49s4 mediated cellular activation while Ly49i4 inhibited NK cytolytic function. Ly49s4, -i3, and -i4 all reacted with a previously described anti-Ly49s3 monoclonal antibody (mAb) (DAR13), but not a novel mAb (STOK6), which was shown to be specific for Ly49s3. Expression of these Ly49 receptors varied markedly between inbred strains, in patterns related to their NK gene complex (NKC) haplotype, and ability to mediate ALC. Three major groups of NKC haplotypes could be discerned by restriction fragment length polymorphism analysis. Ly49s3 was present in strains from one of the groups, which corresponded with the “high” ALC responders. Ly49s3 surface expression was also markedly reduced in the presence of its putative MHC class Ib ligand(s) in MHC congenic strains. These data support the notion that Ly49s3 functions as a triggering MHC receptor both in vitro and in vivo. MHC ligands for the other three Ly49 receptors remain to be determined. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
