An in silico approach for modelling T-helper polarizing iNKT cell agonists [PDF]
, 2014 Many analogues of the glycolipid alpha-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) are known to activate iNKT cells through their interaction with CD1d-expressing antigen-presenting cells, inducing the release of Th1 and Th2 cytokines. Because of iNKT cell involvement

An optimized method for isolating and expanding invariant natural killer T cells from mouse spleen [PDF]
, 2015 The ability to rapidly secrete cytokines upon stimulation is a functional characteristic of the invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell lineage. iNKT cells are therefore characterized as an innate T cell population capable of activating and steering ...

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 iNKT cells are CD1d-restricted T cells recognizing lipid antigens. The prototypic iNKT cell-agonist α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) alongside compounds with similar structures induces robust proliferation and cytokine production of iNKT cells and ...

A potent adjuvant effect of a CD1d-binding NKT cell ligand in human immune system mice
Expert Review of Vaccines, 2017 Objectives: A CD1d-binding invariant natural killer T (iNKT)-cell stimulatory glycolipid, namely 7DW8-5, is shown to enhance the efficacy of radiation-attenuated sporozoites (RAS)-based malaria vaccine in mice.

MAIT cells come to the rescue in cancer immunotherapy? [PDF]
, 2020 Recent progress in immunobiology has led to the observation that, among cells classically categorized as the typical representatives of the adaptive immune system, i.e., T cells, some possess the phenotype of innate cells.

OncoImmunology, 2018 Immunotherapies that target CD1d-restricted invariant NKT (iNKT) cells can prevent tumor growth in murine models but trials in humans have shown limited clinical efficacy. Here, we show that iNKT cells are depleted from blood and bronchial lavage samples

CD1d-Restricted Type II NKT Cells Reactive With Endogenous Hydrophobic Peptides
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 NKT cells belong to a distinct subset of T cells that recognize hydrophobic antigens presented by major histocompatibility complex class I-like molecules, such as CD1d.

Immune evasion of the CD1d/NKT cell axis [PDF]
, 2018 Many reviews on the CD1d/NKT cell axis focus on the ability of CD1d-restricted NKT cells to serve as effector cells in a variety of disorders, be they infectious diseases, cancer or autoimmunity.

Come forth CD1d: Hsp110 in the regulation of intestinal epithelial CD1d expression [PDF]
Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2003 CD1d, a nonclassical MHC class I-like molecule, is prominently expressed on intestinal epithelial cells and is thought to function in the regulation of intestinal intraepithelial lymphocyte activity. Hsp110, an abundant heat shock protein present in essentially all mammalian tissues, has now been shown to upregulate CD1d expression in colonic tissue ...

Altered thymic differentiation and modulation of arthritis by invariant NKT cells expressing mutant ZAP70 [PDF]
, 2018 Various subsets of invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells with different cytokine productions develop in the mouse thymus, but the factors driving their differentiation remain unclear.
