Natural killer T cell and pathophysiology of asthma [PDF]

Korean Journal of Pediatrics, 2010
Natural killer T (NKT) cell is a special type of T lymphocytes that has both receptor of natural killer (NK) cell (NK1.1, CD161c) and T cell (TCR) and express a conserved or invariant T cell receptor called V?#7284;J?#7288; in mice or Va24 in humans ...

Invariant natural killer T cells in children with eosinophilic esophagitis [PDF]

Clinical & Experimental Allergy, 2013
SummaryBackgroundEosinophilic esophagitis (EoE) is an atopic disease characterized by eosinophilic inflammation in which dietary antigens (in particular, milk) play a major role. EoE is most likely a mixed IgE and non‐IgE food‐mediated reaction in which overexpression of Th2 cytokines, particularly IL‐13, play a major role; however, the cells ...

Id2 regulates hyporesponsive invariant natural killer T cells [PDF]

Immunology & Cell Biology, 2016
While the invariant natural killer T (iNKT)‐cell response to primary stimulation with the glycolipid, α‐galactosylceramide (αGalCer), is robust, the secondary response to this stimulus is muted resulting in a hyporesponsive state characterized by anti‐inflammatory interleukin‐10 (IL‐10) production and high expression of programmed cell death 1 (PD1 ...

Invariant natural killer T cells in asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease

, 2007
Background: the number of type 2 helper CD4+ T cells is increased in the airways of persons with asthma. Whether the majority of these cells are class II major-histocompatibility-complex-restricted cells or are among the recently identified CD1d ...

A novel self-lipid antigen targets human T cells against CD1c(+) leukemias [PDF]

, 2014
T cells that recognize self-lipids presented by CD1c are frequent in the peripheral blood of healthy individuals and kill transformed hematopoietic cells, but little is known about their antigen specificity and potential antileukemia effects.

The Roles of Liver-Resident Lymphocytes in Liver Diseases

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Tissue-resident lymphocytes usually reside in barrier sites and are involved in innate and adaptive immunity. In recent years, many studies have shown that multiple types of lymphocytes are resident in the liver, including memory CD8+ T (TRM) cells ...

Diversity in medullary thymic epithelial cells controls the activity and availability of iNKT cells

Nature Communications, 2020
Thymus is a unique environment hosting the development of many T cell subsets with distinct functions. Here the authors show that medullary thymic epithelial cells (mTEC) are functionally diverse, with LTβR signaling serving differential regulation of ...

Stimulator of interferon genes agonist augmented antitumor immunity of osimertinib in Egfr‐mutated lung cancer

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Combining osimertinib with the STING agonist ADU‐S100 activates innate and adaptive immunity to overcome the non‐inflamed microenvironment of Egfr‐mutant lung cancer. This combination increases NK and CD8+ T‐cell infiltration, associated with activation of the STING‐IRF3 pathway and local immunogenic cell death.

CD1d expression and invariant NKT cell responses in herpesvirus infections

Frontiers in Immunology, 2015
Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a highly conserved subset of unconventional T lymphocytes that express a canonical, semi-invariant T cell receptor (TCR) and surface markers shared with the natural killer cell lineage.

Photothermal‐Activated Antibacterial Amyloid‐Polyphenol‐Iron Hydrogels for Synergistic Wound Healing

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We report a thermally triggered supramolecular hydrogel (LTFe) formed by Fe3+ and tannic acid on lysozyme amyloid fibrils. Fe3+ enables rapid gelation and photothermal transduction with an efficiency of 88.56%. The LTFe hydrogel exhibits excellent biocompatibility, potent antibacterial activity against E. coli and S.
