Human KIR <sup>+</sup> CD8 <sup>+</sup> T cells target pathogenic T cells in Celiac disease and are active in autoimmune diseases and COVID-19

2021-12-25

Abstract excerpt

Previous reports show that Ly49 + CD8 + T cells can suppress autoimmunity in mouse models of autoimmune diseases. Here we find a markedly increased frequency of CD8 + T cells expressing inhibitory Killer cell Immunoglobulin like Receptors (KIR), the human equivalent of the Ly49 family, in the blood and inflamed tissues of various autoimmune diseases. Moreover, KIR + CD8 + T cells can efficiently eliminate pat...
