Natural killer (NK) cells directly lysis the virus-infected cells through rapidly releasing cytotoxic mediators and cytokines. The balance between inhibitory and activated receptors on the surface of NK cells, as well as the corresponding ligands expressed on target cells are involved in the regulation of the cytotoxic function of NK cells. NKG2A is one of the highly anticipated inhibitory receptors expressed on NK cells, which can inhibit the cytotoxicity of NK cells to autologous normal tissue cells through interacting with the ligand HLA-E. The studies have shown that HLA-E is overexpressed on virus-infected cells and forms a complex with peptides derived from viral proteins. The interaction of HLA-E and NKG2A can regulate the functions of NK cells, participateing the pathogenesis process of virus infectious diseases. This review outlines the characteristics of the molecular interaction between NKG2A and HLA-E, as well as the mechanisms of NKG2A-HLA-E axis in regulating NK cell responses.
