iNKT-Cell Responses to Glycolipids

Critical Reviews in Immunology, 2005
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are an unusual group of T lymphocytes that recognize glycolipid antigens presented by the major histocompatibility complex class I-related protein CD1d. Because iNKT cells play a regulatory role in the immune system, they are attractive targets for immunotherapy.

The interaction between iNKT cells and B cells

Journal of Leukocyte Biology, 2021
AbstractInvariant natural killer T cells (iNKTs) bridge the innate immunity with the adaptive immunity and their interaction with B cells has been extensively studied. Here, we give a complete overview of these two cells, from their mechanism of interaction to clinical prospects and existing problems.

iNKT Cells in Allergic Disease

2007
Recent studies indicate that invariant TCR+ CD1d-restricted natural killer T (iNKT) cells play an important role in regulating the development of asthma and allergy. iNKT cells can function to skew adaptive immunity toward Th2 responses, or can act directly as effector cells at mucosal surfaces in diseases such as ulcerative colitis and bronchial ...

iNKT cells need UTX-tra demethylation

Nature Immunology, 2017
The epigenetic regulation of gene expression by the histone demethylase UTX is central to the development of invariant natural killer cells.

iNKT cells and hematopoietic stem cell transplantation: Two-phase activation of iNKT cells may improve outcome

Clinical Immunology, 2019
Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT) produce large amounts of different cytokines which can influence differentiation, polarization and activation of immune cells, particularly NK and T cells. iNKT have been shown to suppress GvHD and promote anti-tumor and anti-pathogen immunity.

GVHD protection? ThiNK iNKT cells

Blood, 2012
In this issue of Blood , Rubio et al report that posttransplant invariant NKT (iNKT) cell recovery is inversely correlated with the risk of developing GVHD after stem cell transplantation ...

Expansion of Human iNKT Cells Ex Vivo

2021
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are credited with antitumor activity by preclinical studies and clinical trials. Efficient expansion of iNKT cells ex vivo is essential for their translational usage. The culturing procedure described here provides an optimized method for ex vivo expansion of iNKT cells using recombinant human IL-15 (rhIL-15) and

Genetic Analysis of iNKT Cell Development and Function

2021
Natural killer T (NKT) cells are among the immediate and early responding immune cells and are important players in autoimmune diseases and tumor immunity. This unique subset of T cells shares properties of natural killer cells and T cells. Proper identification and characterization of NKT cell subsets is essential to understand the function and ...

Innate Regulatory iNKT Cells

2008
The complexity of the immune system requires mechanisms, cellular and molecular, that coordinate early innate immune responses to those of late adaptive immune responses. One type of immune cell that is able to mediate this bridge between innate immunity and adaptive immunity is the invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell. In recent years, much research
