Background: NKp30/NCR3

NKp30, also referred to as natural cytotoxicity receptor 3 (NCR3), is a type I transmembrane receptor belonging to the immunoglobulin (Ig) superfamily that is expressed on resting and active natural killer (NK) cells with a role in triggering a cytotoxic response against tumor cells (1). The human NKp30 protein has six isoforms. The canonical isoform (NKp30a) is 177 amino acids (aa) in length with a theoretical molecular weight of 21.6 kDa (1,2). The NKp30 protein consists of a signal peptide, an Ig domain, a stalk region, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular region (1-3). NKp30/NCR3 signaling relies on interaction with the immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motif (ITAM)-containing adaptor molecules CD3zeta and FcRgamma (1,4,5). Other NRC family members include NKp44 and NKp46 (1,3-6). NK cell activation and tumor surveillance occurs through receptor-ligand binding. Tumor-derived ligands for NKp30 include HLA-B-associated transcript 3 (BAT3)/Bcl2-associated anthogene 6 (BAG6) and B7-H6 (4-6). NKp30 has also been suggested to play a role in NK-dendritic cell (DC) crosstalk by promoting DC maturation and cytotoxicity of immature DCs, mediated in part by BAT3 (1,4,5).

Given its role in NK cell-mediated killing and activation, NKp30 is a potential target for cancer immunotherapies (6). For instance, Bi-specific T cell engagers (BiTE) is one immunotherapy approach targeting the NKp30/B7-H6 interaction where B7-H6-specific BiTE elicits an attack on tumor cells through interferon gamma (IFNgamma) production and T cell cytotoxicity (1). Another potential approach is NKp30-derived chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) where CAR-T cells that express chimeric NKp30 receptors can efficiently attack B7-H6 tumor cells (1,6).
