The Immutable Recognition of CD1d [PDF]
CD1d presents lipid antigens to natural killer T cells. In this issue of Immunity, Wun et al. (2011) and Mallevaey et al. (2011) explore the molecular details of nonself lipid discrimination and self-recognition.

CD1d-dependent rewiring of lipid metabolism in macrophages regulates innate immune responses.
Alterations in cellular metabolism underpin macrophage activation, yet little is known regarding how key immunological molecules regulate metabolic programs in macrophages.

Polymorphisms in CD1d affect antigen presentation and the activation of CD1d-restricted T cells [PDF]
CD1 proteins constitute a distinct lineage of antigen-presenting molecules specialized for the presentation of lipid antigens to T cells. In contrast to the extensive sequence polymorphism characteristic of classical MHC molecules, CD1 proteins exhibit limited sequence diversity.

CD1d-restricted iNKT cells contribute to protection against GBS infection in vivo.
(A) Schematic created using BioRender.com displaying the experimental design. WT, CD1d-/-, and Traj18-/- mice were immunized with R-P4 and boosted 14 days later. At day 21, mice were challenged with HH GBS (WT NCTC10/84).

Overexpression of CD1d by Keratinocytes in Psoriasis and CD1d-Dependent IFN-γ Production by NK-T Cells [PDF]
Abstract The MHC class I-like protein CD1d is a nonpolymorphic molecule that plays a central role in development and activation of a subset of T cells that coexpress receptors used by NK cells (NK-T cells). Recently, T cells bearing NK receptors were identified in acute and chronic lesions of psoriasis. To determine whether NK-T cells

Introduction Glucocorticoids contribute to the pathogenesis of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD). Natural killer T cells play a role in the pathogenesis of NAFLD and response to steroids.

Forming a complex with MHC class I molecules interferes with mouse CD1d functional expression. [PDF]
CD1d molecules are structurally similar to MHC class I, but present lipid antigens as opposed to peptides. Here, we show that MHC class I molecules physically associate with (and regulate the functional expression of) mouse CD1d on the surface of cells ...

CD1d presentation of glycolipids
The CD1 family of antigen‐presenting molecules consists of five members, CD1a to e. Of these molecules CD1d has been the subject of much interest over the past 10 years following the discovery that this molecule presents antigens to a group of T cells known as invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT).
