PMID: 21307848
Two different forms of death are commonly observed when Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb)-infected macrophages die: (i) necrosis, a death modality defined by cell lysis and (ii) apoptosis, a form of death...

Behar S, Porcelli S
Curr Top Microbiol Immunol
. 2007 Jun;
314:215-50.
PMID: 17593663
CD1 has been clearly shown to function as a microbial recognition system for activation of T cell responses, but its importance for mammalian protective responses against infections is still uncertain....

Immunity
. 2002 Jan;
15(6):909-19.
PMID: 11754813
NK1.1(+) T cells develop and function through interactions with cell surface CD1 complexes. In I-A(b) mice lacking the invariant chain (Ii) processing enzyme, cathepsin S, NK1.1(+) T cell selection and...

Chackerian A, Perera T, Behar S
Infect Immun
. 2001 Mar;
69(4):2666-74.
PMID: 11254633
The human immune system efficiently limits the replication of Mycobacterium tuberculosis in most infected individuals. Only 5 to 10% of infected people develop clinical tuberculosis, a sign of the inability...

Behar S, Cardell S
Semin Immunol
. 2001 Jan;
12(6):551-60.
PMID: 11145861
Invariant CD1d-restricted T cells express NK cell markers and use a limited TCR repertoire. Here, we describe a second CD1d-restricted T cell subset that uses a diverse TCR repertoire. These...

Immunity
. 2000 Mar;
12(2):211-21.
PMID: 10714687
NKT cells are associated with immunological control of autoimmune disease and cancer and can recognize cell surface mCD1d without addition of exogenous antigens. Cellular antigens presented by mCD1d have not...

J Immunol
. 1999 Nov;
163(10):5478-88.
PMID: 10553074
CD1 is a family of cell-surface molecules capable of presenting microbial lipid Ags to specific T cells. Here we describe the CD1 gene family of the guinea pig (Cavia porcellus)....

J Exp Med
. 1999 Jun;
189(12):1973-80.
PMID: 10377193
Cellular immunity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis controls infection in the majority of infected humans. Studies in mice have delineated an important role for CD4(+) T cells and cytokines including interferon gamma...

J Immunol
. 1999 Apr;
162(8):4560-6.
PMID: 10201995
CD1 is an MHC class I-like molecule that has been conserved throughout mammalian evolution. Unlike MHC class I molecules, CD1 can present unique nonprotein antigens to T cells. The murine...

162(1):161-7.
PMID: 9886382
Human and murine T cells that specifically recognize CD1d and produce IL-4 and IFN-gamma play a role in immunoregulation and tumor rejection. In the mouse, most CD1d1-reactive T cells described...
