Immunosenescence is a physiological process that is associated with changes in the immune system, particularly among CD8 T-cells. Recent studies have hypothesized that senescent CD8 T-cells are produced with chronologic age by chronic stimulation ...

Innate-like recognition of microbes by invariant natural killer T cells [PDF]
Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT cells) express a restricted T cell antigen receptor (TCR) repertoire and they respond rapidly to glycolipid antigens presented by CD1d. These glycolipid antigens have hexose sugars in alpha-linkage to two types of lipids that can bind to CD1d.

A murine intestinal intraepithelial NKp46-negative innate lymphoid cell population characterized by group 1 properties [PDF]
The Ly49E receptor is preferentially expressed on murine innate-like lymphocytes, such as epidermal V gamma 3 T cells, intestinal intraepithelial CD8 alpha alpha(+) T lymphocytes, and CD49a(+) liver natural killer (NK) cells.

Innate lymphocytes: Role in alcohol-induced immune dysfunction
Alcohol use is known to alter the function of both innate and adaptive immune cells, such as neutrophils, macrophages, B cells, and T cells. Immune dysfunction has been associated with alcohol-induced end-organ damage.

Tissue-resident lymphocytes: sentinel of the transformed tissue
Tumor cells can be detected and cleared by lymphocytes in a process termed cancer immunosurveillance. However, the contributing cell types had not been fully characterized.

Functional Phenotypes of Human Vγ9Vδ2 T Cells in Lymphoid Stress Surveillance
Butyrophilin and butyrophilin-like proteins select γδ T cells and direct the migration of γδ T cell subsets to distinct anatomical sites. γδ T cells expressing Vδ2 paired with Vγ9 (Vγ9Vδ2 T cells) are the

Altered Innate-like T Cell Development in Vα14-Jα18 TCRα Transgenic Mice [PDF]
Abstract CD1d-restricted invariant NKT (iNKT) cells are innate-like T cells that respond to glycolipids, a class of Ags that are invisible to conventional T cells. iNKT cells develop in the thymus where they receive strong “agonist” TCR signals.

Invariant NKT cells contribute to chronic lymphocytic leukemia surveillance and prognosis [PDF]
Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is characterized by the expansion of malignant CD5(+) B lymphocytes in blood, bone marrow and lymphoid organs. CD1d-restricted invariant Natural Killer T (iNKT) cells are innate-like T lymphocytes strongly implicated in

Interleukin-4 regulates eomesodermin in CD8+ T cell development and differentiation. [PDF]
Interleukin (IL)-4 is a cytokine classically associated with CD4(+) T helper type 2 differentiation, but has been recently shown to also be required for the development of CD8(+) innate-like lymphocytes.

Innate immunity and early liver inflammation
The innate system constitutes a first-line defence mechanism against pathogens. 80% of the blood supply entering the human liver arrives from the splanchnic circulation through the portal vein, so it is constantly exposed to immunologically active ...
