    Nuestra Facultad de Contaduría ha cumplido recientemente 17 años de labores y nada mejor para celebrar este aniversario que la noticia sobre la aproba- ción dada por el ICFES al programa de Especialización en Hevisoría Fiscal y Auditoría Externa que esperamos iniciar en el mes de septiembre. Es el primer programa aprobado a una Universidad en el país para adelantar estudios de formación avanzada en estas disciplinas. En la ciudad hermana de Cúcuta se celebrará desde agosto 14 al 17 el X Congreso Colombiano de Contadores Públicos y el primer encuentro Colombo Venezolano de Profesionales de la Contaduría. La organización del evento espera contar con la asístencia de nutridas delegaciones de todas las ciudades del país con el loable propósito de buscar la unificación en una sola agremiación de todos los Contadores Públicos de Colombia.Presentación. - 2 Quinto encuentro colombiano de investigaciób de la Facuktad de Contaduría Pública UNAB. -3 Primer encuentro colombiano de investigación de la Ciencia Contable. 6 Inventario de investigación de la Facultad. - 9Our School of Accounting has recently completed 17 years of work and there is nothing better to celebrate this anniversary than the news about the approval given by ICFES to the Specialization Program in Fiscal Audit and External Audit that we hope to start in the month of September.

    The Role of Natural Killer (NK) Cells and NK Cell Receptor Polymorphisms in the Assessment of HIV-1 Neutralization

    The importance of innate immune cells in HIV-1 pathogenesis and protection has been highlighted by the role of natural killer (NK) cells in the containment of viral replication. Use of peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) in immunologic studies provides both HIV-1 target cells (ie. CD4+ T cells), as well as anti-HIV-1 effector cells, such as NK cells. In this study, NK and other immune cell populations were analyzed in HIV-negative donor PBMC for an impact on the anti-HIV activity of polyclonal and monoclonal antibodies. NK cell percentages were significantly higher in donor PBMC that supported lower levels of viral replication. While the percentage of NK cells was not directly associated with neutralization titers, NK cell-depletion significantly diminished the antiviral antibody activity by up to three logs, and polymorphisms in NK killer immunoglobulin receptor (KIR) and FcγRIIIa alleles appear to be associated with this affect. These findings demonstrate that NK cells and NK cell receptor polymorphisms may influence assessment of traditional HIV-1 neutralization in a platform where antibody is continuously present. This format appears to simultaneously assess conventional entry inhibition (neutralization) and non-neutralizing antibody-dependent HIV inhibition, which may provide the opportunity to delineate the dominant antibody function(s) in polyclonal vaccine responses
