    Human NK cells can be divided into CD56(dim) and CD56(bright) subsets. These two types of NK cells respond to different types of stimuli, with CD56(dim) NK cells having direct cytotoxic ability and CD56(bright) NK cells having mainly an immunoregulatory function. We show that the CD16+ CD56(dim) NK subset is characterized by sensitivity to cell death induced by activated granulocytes. We identified hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as the major effector molecule responsible for the cytotoxic effect of granulocytes on CD56(dim) NK cells, because the ability of granulocytes to kill CD56(dim) NK cells was completely abrogated in the presence of the hydrogen peroxide scavenger catalase. When exposing NK cells to H2O2, CD56(dim) cells showed rapid mitochondrial depolarization and down-regulation of activating NKRs, eventually resulting in cell death, whereas CD56(bright) cells remained unaffected. The difference in sensitivity to H2O2 was mirrored by a difference in intracellular oxidation levels between CD56(dim) and CD56(bright) NK cells, and cell lysates from the latter subset possessed a greater ability to block H2O2-mediated oxidation. Our data may explain the preferential accumulation of CD56(bright) NK cells often seen in environments rich in reactive oxygen species, such as at sites of chronic inflammation and in tumors.
