1 BACKGROUND: NKG2D recognises several ligands, including polymorphic major histocompatibility complex class I chain-related chain-related proteins A and B (MICA/B) and unique long 16-binding proteins (ULBPs). mica killer cell lectin like receptor K1 Homo sapiens
2 miR-302c and miR-520c expression was induced, and their levels inversely correlated with the levels of NKG2D ligands MICA/B and ULBP2 upon 1,25(OH)2D3 treatment. mica killer cell lectin like receptor K1 Homo sapiens
3 CONCLUSION: 1,25(OH)2D3 facilitates the immuno-attack of NK cells against malignant cells partly through downregulation of miR-302c and miR-520c and hence upregulation of the NKG2D ligands MICA/B and ULBP2. mica killer cell lectin like receptor K1 Homo sapiens
