Journal ArticleDOI

PAD4 is essential for antibacterial innate immunity mediated by neutrophil extracellular traps

TL;DR: It is found that citrullination decreased the bacterial killing activity of histones and nucleosomes, which suggests that PAD4 mainly plays a role in chromatin decondensation to form NETs instead of increasing histone-mediated bacterial killing.
Journal ArticleDOI

NKG2D-Deficient Mice Are Defective in Tumor Surveillance in Models of Spontaneous Malignancy

TL;DR: Evidence is provided that NKG2D was not necessary for NK cell development but was critical for immunosurveillance of epithelial and lymphoid malignancies in two transgenic models of de novo tumorigenesis, providing important genetic evidence for surveillance of primary tumors by an NK receptor.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Role of the NKG2D Immunoreceptor in Immune Cell Activation and Natural Killing

TL;DR: It is observed that cross-linking of NKG2D directly stimulates NK cells and activated macrophages and costimulates activated CD8(+) T cells, and plays a substantial role in natural killing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Correction: Corrigendum: Differential developmental requirement and peripheral regulation for dermal Vγ4 and Vγ6T17 cells in health and inflammation

TL;DR: Huang-Ge Zhang as discussed by the authors was supported by a Research Career Scientist (RCS) Award, but the financial support for this article was not fully acknowledged by the RCS.
