Raising the NKT Cell Family

Nature Immunology, 2010
Natural killer T cells (NKT cells) are CD1d-restricted, lipid antigen-reactive, immunoregulatory T lymphocytes that can promote cell-mediated immunity to tumors and infectious organisms, including bacteria and viruses, yet paradoxically they can also suppress the cell-mediated immunity associated with autoimmune disease and allograft rejection ...

Identification of Bcl-6-Dependent Follicular Helper NKT Cells That Provide Cognate Help for B Cell Responses [PDF]

open access: yesNature Immunology, 2012
Lipid antigens trigger help from natural killer T cells (NKT cells) for B cells, and direct conjugation of lipid agonists to antigen profoundly augments antibody responses.

The Biology of NKT Cells

Annual Review of Immunology, 2007
Recognized more than a decade ago, NKT cells differentiate from mainstream thymic precursors through instructive signals emanating during TCR engagement by CD1d-expressing cortical thymocytes. Their semi-invariant αβ TCRs recognize isoglobotrihexosylceramide, a mammalian glycosphingolipid, as well as microbial α-glycuronylceramides found in the cell ...

Role of NKT Cells in the Digestive System. II. NKT cells and diabetes

American Journal of Physiology-Gastrointestinal and Liver Physiology, 2007
Natural killer T (NKT) cells are a subset of regulatory T lymphocytes that recognize glycolipid antigens presented by the major histocompatibility complex class I-related glycoprotein CD1d. NKT cells have been implicated in regulating the progression of Type 1 diabetes (T1D) in human patients and in an animal model for T1D.

NKT cells in liver diseases

Frontiers of Medicine, 2018
Natural killer T cells are innate-like and tissue-resident lymphocytes, which recognize lipid antigens and are enriched in the liver. Natural killer T cells play important roles in infections, tumors, autoimmune diseases, and metabolic diseases.
