In this study, we have investigated the early in vitro effects of natural killer (NK) cells on porcine aortic endothelial cell (PAEC) monolayers. Incubation of effector cells containing about 70% CD56+ cells on PAEC monolayers led to time-dependent changes in PAEC monolayer morphology. As little as 20 min of incubation resulted in changes in PAEC shape and in the appearance of gaps between the cells. These effects have been observed for up to 6 hr, but not before 20 min or after 6 hr. When NK-depleted effector cells were used, no morphological changes were observed in comparison with the same effectors before depletion; if CD56+ cells were added back, the effects were comparable with those on nondepleted effector cells. There was no detectable NK cell-mediated cytolytic activity during the 1-6 hr of incubation of peripheral blood lymphocytes with PAEC monolayers. These data indicate that NK cells may participate in endothelial cell changes leading to xenograft rejection.
