Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
If the BM sample is infiltrated by NBL cells, the expression of activating NK cell receptor ligands on the tumor itself; such as MIC (MICA/B) and ULBP (ULBP1-4) proteins and CD112/ -CD155 as well as the expression of HLA class I (inhibitory ligand), CD54/ -CD58 (adhesion) will be evaluated by FACS analysis using multiple markers. NK cell sensitivity will be determined by labelling primary NBL cells with 51- Chromium or by chemo luminescent methods and adding resting and cytokine activated NK cells. Furthermore, if NK cell cytotoxicity occurs, activating NK cell receptors will be blocked by monoclonal antibodies (NKG2D, DNAM-1), thereby allowing analysis of the activating signals involved. Peripheral blood samples of newly diagnosed, untreated NBL patients will allow analysis of NK cell phenotype and function in these patients at time of diagnosis.
