Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells have evolved to recognize CD1d-presented lipid
antigens and are known to play important roles during infection with bacterial, viral …

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 …

Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are a specialized T cell subset that plays an important
role in host defense, orchestrating both innate and adaptive immune effector responses …

Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells become activated during a wide variety of infections.
This includes organisms lacking cognate CD1d-binding glycolipid antigens recognized by …

Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells are evolutionarily conserved lipid‐reactive T cells that
bridge innate and adaptive immune responses. Despite a relatively restricted T‐cell receptor …

T cells can recognize microbial antigens when presented by dedicated antigen-presenting
molecules. While peptides are presented by classical members of the major …

Invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells exist in a'poised effector'state, which enables them to
rapidly produce cytokines following activation. Using a nearly monospecific T cell receptor …

Invariant natural killer T cells (i NKT cells) are unique lymphocytes with characteristic
features, such as expression of an invariant T-cell antigen receptor (TCR) α-chain …

Invariant natural killer T cells (iNKT cells) are critical for host defense against a variety of
microbial pathogens. However, the central question of how iNKT cells are activated by …

CD1d-restricted invariant natural killer T (i NKT) cells are innate-type lymphocytes that
express a T-cell receptor (TCR) containing an invariant α chain encoded by the Vα14 gene …
