TGFβ Inhibits CD1d Expression on Dendritic Cells [PDF]
The CD1 family of cell surface glycoprotein has been demonstrated to be a third lineage of antigen-presenting molecules for specific T cell responses. They present lipidic, glycolipidic antigen and hydrophobic peptide to T cells. CD1d restricted T cells play a role in autoimmune disease and in tumor immunity.

Innate-like control of human iNKT cell autoreactivity via the hypervariable CDR3beta loop.
Invariant Natural Killer T cells (iNKT) are a versatile lymphocyte subset with important roles in both host defense and immunological tolerance. They express a highly conserved TCR which mediates recognition of the non-polymorphic, lipid-binding molecule

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.

CD1d-dependent CLL progression? [PDF]
In this issue of Blood , Gorini et al provide compelling evidence for an indirect CD1d- and natural killer T (NKT) cell–dependent mechanism that promotes disease progression in chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL ...

Hepatic CD1d Expression in Hepatitis C Virus Infection and Recognition by Resident Proinflammatory CD1d-Reactive T Cells [PDF]
Abstract A subset of CD161+CD56+/− NKT cells can recognize glycolipids presented by CD1d and positively or negatively regulate inflammatory responses, including those implicated in several models of hepatitis. CD1d is expressed at very low levels in the healthy liver, but there is a large fraction of CD161+CD56+ NKT cells. There are high

Natural killer T (NKT) cells comprise a family of specialized T cells that recognize lipid antigens presented by CD1d. Based on their T cell receptor (TCR) usage and antigen-specificities, CD1d-restricted NKT cells have been divided into two main subsets:

Activation of iNKT Cells Prevents Salmonella-Enterocolitis and Salmonella-Induced Reactive Arthritis by Downregulating IL-17-Producing γδT Cells [PDF]
Reactive arthritis (ReA) is an inflammatory condition of the joints that arises following an infection. Salmonella enterocolitis is one of the most common infections leading to ReA.
