CD33 (Siglec-3) Inhibitory Function: Role in the NKG2D/DAP10 Activating Pathway

Figure 3

Inhibition of IFN-γ secretion by CD33 on NKL cells. hc-NKL cells were cocultured with P815 cells at a 1 : 1 E/T ratio. IFN-γ secretion is efficiently inhibited by anti-ILT2 but not by anti-CD33 (WM53 or HIM3-4) mAb. The figure shows (a) IFN-γ secretion (one representative assay out of four) and (b) percentage of inhibition () of anti-CD33 and anti-ILT2 mAb from all assays performed. All differences are statistically significant. .
