The Pathophysiological Relevance of the iNKT Cell/Mononuclear Phagocyte Crosstalk in Tissues
CD1d-restricted Natural Killer T (NKT) cells are regarded as sentinels of tissue integrity by sensing local cell stress and damage. This occurs via recognition of CD1d-restricted lipid antigens, generated by stress-related metabolic changes, and ...

Human respiratory epithelial cells express CD1d protein.
Panel A: Flow cytometry analysis of CD1d expression on Beas2B and A549 epithelial cell lines, using three anti-human CD1d mAbs – clones 42, 51.1.3, and NOR3.2.

Expression of six CD1D alternatively spliced CD1D variants in human respiratory epithelial cells.
Panel A: Schematic illustration of primer pairs “C/C”, “D/D”, and “D/E” annealing sites on CD1D mRNA, and corresponding full-length product sizes. Panel B: RT-PCR on primary bronchial epithelial cells detected a 305-bp band.

Synthesis of a 2ꞌꞌ-Deoxy-β-GalCer
Structural studies of ternary complexes of CD1d/glycosyl ceramides/iNKT cells and CD1d/sulfatide/sulfatide reactive Type II NKT cells have shown how the polar moieties on the glycolipids interact with both the antigen presenting protein (CD1d) and the T ...

Cord blood Vα24-Vβ11 natural killer T cells display a Th2-chemokine receptor profile and cytokine responses [PDF]
Background: The fetal immune system is characterized by a Th2 bias but it is unclear how the Th2 predominance is established. Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a rare subset of T cells with immune regulatory functions and are already activated in utero ...

Aberrant Presentation of Self-Lipids by Autoimmune B Cells Depletes Peripheral iNKT Cells
Summary: Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells provide cognate help via CD1d to lipid antigen-presenting B cells for antibody production, but whether B cells reciprocally regulate iNKT cells remains largely unexplored.

Tandem repeats modify the structure of the canine CD1D gene [PDF]
Among the CD1 proteins that present lipid antigens to T cells, CD1d is the only one that stimulates a population of T cells with an invariant T-cell receptor known as NKT cells.
