Endogenous and Exogenous CD1-Binding Glycolipids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In the same way that peptide antigens are presented by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) molecules, glycolipid antigens can also activate the immune response via binding to CD1 proteins on antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and stimulate CD1-restricted

CD1 displays its own negative regulators

open access: yes, 2023
After two decades of the study of lipid antigens that activate CD1-restricted T cells, new studies show how autoreactive αβ T-cell receptors (TCRs) can directly recognize the outer surface of CD1 proteins in ways that are lipid-agnostic.

Polyantigenic Interferon-γ Responses are Associated with Protection from TB Among HIV-Infected Adults with Childhood BCG Immunization. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Surrogate immunologic markers for natural and vaccine-mediated protection against tuberculosis (TB) have not been identified. HIV-infected adults with childhood BCG immunization entering the placebo arm of the DarDar TB vaccine trial in Dar es Salaam ...

Lipid specific and vitamin specific non-MHC restricted T cells: new players in human pathophysiology.

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2015
Since initial reports, more than 25 years ago, that T cells recognise lipids in the context on non-polymorphic CD1 molecules, our understanding of antigen presentation to non-peptide specific T cell populations has deepened.

Determination of cellular lipids bound to human CD1d molecules. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
CD1 molecules are glycoproteins that present lipid antigens at the cell surface for immunological recognition by specialized populations of T lymphocytes.

CD1-Restricted T Cells During Persistent Virus Infections: “Sympathy for the Devil”

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Some of the clinically most important viruses persist in the human host after acute infection. In this situation, the host immune system and the viral pathogen attempt to establish an equilibrium. At best, overt disease is avoided. This attempt may fail,

Nonclassical MHC Ib-restricted CD8+ T Cells Recognize Mycobacterium tuberculosis-Derived Protein Antigens and Contribute to Protection Against Infection. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2016
MHC Ib-restricted CD8+ T cells have been implicated in host defense against Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) infection. However, the relative contribution of various MHC Ib-restricted T cell populations to anti-mycobacterial immunity remains elusive.

Mycolic acid-specific T cells protect against Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection in a humanized transgenic mouse model

open access: yeseLife, 2015
Group 1 CD1 molecules, CD1a, CD1b and CD1c, present lipid antigens from Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to T cells. Mtb lipid-specific group 1 CD1-restricted T cells have been detected in Mtb-infected individuals.

Design and Immunological Validation of Macaca fascicularis Papillomavirus Type 3 Based Vaccine Candidates in Outbred Mice: Basis for Future Testing of a Therapeutic Papillomavirus Vaccine in NHPs

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Persistent human papillomavirus (HPV) infections are causative for cervical neoplasia and carcinomas. Despite the availability of prophylactic vaccines, morbidity and mortality induced by HPV are still too high.
