Development of a deep learning-based 1D convolutional neural network model for cross-species natural killer T cell identification using peripheral blood mononuclear cell single-cell RNA sequencing data [PDF]
Background and Aim: Natural killer T (NKT) cells exhibit the traits of both T and NK cells. Although their roles have been well studied in humans and mice, limited knowledge is available regarding their roles in dogs and pigs, which serve as models for ...

Osteopontin as a Mediator of NKT Cell Function in T Cell-Mediated Liver Diseases
Both osteopontin (OPN) and natural killer T (NKT) cells play a role in the development of immunological disorders. We examined a functional link between OPN and NKT cells. Concanavalin A (Con A)-induced hepatitis is a well-characterized murine model of T

Neurofibromin 1 Impairs Natural Killer T-Cell-Dependent Antitumor Immunity against a T-Cell Lymphoma
Neurofibromin 1 (NF1) is a tumor suppressor gene encoding a Ras GTPase that negatively regulates Ras signaling pathways. Mutations in NF1 are linked to neurofibromatosis type 1, juvenile myelomonocytic leukemia and Watson syndrome.

Differential requirement for the CD45 splicing regulator hnRNPLL for accumulation of NKT and conventional T cells. [PDF]
Natural killer T (NKT) cells represent an important regulatory T cell subset that develops in the thymus and contains immature (NK1.1(lo)) and mature (NK1.1(hi)) cell subsets.

A major group of murine NK T (NKT) cells express an invariant Valpha14Jalpha18 TCR a-chain specific for glycolipid Ags presented by CD1d. Murine Valpha14alpha18(+) account for 30-50% of hepatic T cells and have potent antitumor activities.

Mitochondria‐Damaging Self‐Reporting Probe for Cancer Therapy
We developed a class of self‐reporting cationic chemotherapeutic probes that selectively induce mitochondrial damage and apoptosis in cancer cells. Their unique mitochondria‐to‐nucleus fluorescence migration enables real‐time visualization of the therapeutic process. ABSTRACT Mitochondrial damage induced by chemotherapeutic agents through disruption of

Recognition of lyso-phospholipids by human natural killer T lymphocytes.
Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a subset of T lymphocytes with potent immunoregulatory properties. Recognition of self-antigens presented by CD1d molecules is an important route of NKT cell activation; however, the molecular identity of specific ...

Skewed distribution of circulating activated natural killer T (NKT) cells in patients with common variable immunodeficiency disorders (CVID). [PDF]
Common variable immunodeficiency disorder (CVID) is the commonest cause of primary antibody failure in adults and children, and characterized clinically by recurrent bacterial infections and autoimmune manifestations.

Natural killer T (NKT) cells express a T cell receptor (TCR) and markers common to NK cells, including NK1.1. In vivo, NKT cells are triggered by anti-CD3ε MAb to rapidly produce large amounts of IL-4 and by IL-12 to reject tumors. We show here that anti-

Multidimensional Cellular Micro‐Compartments to Model Invasive Lobular Carcinoma Dormancy
Invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC) is an understudied subtype of breast cancer that is susceptible to late recurrences. In this study, micro‐compartmentalization techniques spanning multiple dimensions, including 2D, pseudo‐3D, and 3D, are integrated to uncover the mechanisms underlying ILC dormancy, revealing the central role of p27Kip1.
