The rules governing natural killer (NK)-cell education in the allogeneic environment created by unrelated hematopoietic stem-cell transplantation (HSCT) are still largely elusive, especially in an unrelated donor setting. NK-cell inhibitory receptors for self-human leukocyte antigen (HLA) play a central role in the acquisition or maintenance of NK-cell functional competence. Therefore, the responsiveness of different NK-cell subsets was assessed as a function of their expression or absence of expression of self-HLA-specific inhibitory receptors, in a large cohort (n = 60) of unrelated HSCT recipients. A fully effective NK-cell education process was achieved within the first year after allogeneic HSCT and lasted for at least 3 years thereafter. In addition, HLA-mismatched HSCT led to a stable education pattern that was determined by the donor's HLA ligands. These data suggest that the NK cell's education partner could be of hematopoietic rather than extrahematopoietic origin. This donor-ligand-driven NK-cell education model would suggest a sustained graft-versus-leukemia effect after HLA-mismatched HSCT. (Blood. 2011; 117(3): 1021-1029)
