Mg 2+ Regulates Cytotoxic Functions of NK and CD8 T Cells in Chronic EBV Infection Through NKG2D
Open accessAbstract
Magnesium to the Rescue: Individuals with X-linked immunodeficiency with Mg 2+ defect, Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) infection, and neoplasia (XMEN) disease are genetically deficient for expression of MAGT1 , a magnesium transporter. Chaigne-Delalande et al. (p. 186 ) sought to better understand why these individuals are chronically infected with EBV at high viral loads and are susceptible to the development of lymphomas. CD8 + T cells and natural killer cells, which help to keep EBV infection in check, exhibited reduced cytotoxicity owing to their lower expression of the cell surface receptor NKG2D, which triggers cytolysis upon ligation. Magnesium supplementation in vitro and also in two XMEN patients restored levels of free Mg 2+ , increased NKG2D expression, and resulted in reduced amounts of EBV + cells, suggesting that this may be an effective therapeutic approach for XMEN patients.

“Intracellular concentrations of magnesium are critical for the assembly of the NKG2D–DAP10 receptor complex in that patients with a homozygous loss of the magnesium transporter 1 (MAGT1) gene have impaired expression of NKG2D on the surface of their T cells and NK cells, which can be restored by dietary Mgþþ supplemen…”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
