Curr Protoc Immunol . 2017 Nov; 119:14.11.1-14.11.20. PMID: 29091262
This unit details methods for the isolation, in vitro expansion, and functional characterization of human iNKT cells. The term 'iNKT' derives from the fact that a large fraction of murine...

J Immunol . 2010 Jan; 184(4):2107-15. PMID: 20083656
The prevalence of asthma continues to increase in westernized countries, and optimal treatment remains a significant therapeutic challenge. Recently, CD1d-restricted invariant NKT (iNKT) cells were found to play a critical...

Diabetes . 2009 Nov; 59(2):423-32. PMID: 19903740
Objective: In part, activation of invariant natural killer T (iNKT)-cells with the superagonist alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer) inhibits the development of T-cell-mediated autoimmune type 1 diabetes in NOD mice by inducing the...

Chopra P, DiIorio P, Pino S, Wilson S, Phillips N, Mordes J, et al.
In Vivo . 2009 May; 23(2):195-201. PMID: 19414403
Background: Alpha-galactosylceramide (alpha-GalCer) is an invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cell ligand that prevents type 1 diabetes in NOD mice. However, alpha-GalCer can activate or suppress immune responses, raising concern...

Bioorg Med Chem Lett . 2008 Nov; 18(24):6374-6. PMID: 18993065
The synthesis and evaluation for iNKT stimulation of alpha-S-galactosylceramide is reported. Prepared by alkylation of a galactosylthiol, this analog of the potent immunostimulatory agent, KRN7000, did not stimulate iNKT cells...

Eur J Immunol . 2008 May; 38(6):1756-66. PMID: 18493987
A significant fraction of CD1d-restricted T cells express an invariant T cell receptor (TCR) alpha-chain. These highly conserved invariant NKT (iNKT) populations are important regulators of a wide spectrum of...
