How to return a responsibility more NKT cell

summary

What are NKT cells? Many people have never heard of this word, and even if they have heard it, they don't know what it means. So I'd like to tell you about the so-called NKT cells in the examination. I believe many people have such doubts. Next, let me talk about the NKT cells in detail? I hope we can have a certain understanding.

How to return a responsibility more NKT cell

First: co expression of T cell receptor and NK cell receptor. The classic NKT cells are CD4 + and DN NKT cells. NK1.1 is the most important surface marker of NKT cells

Second: bias usage of TCR gene. Compared with other T cell subsets, NKT cells have a unique restricted TCR library.

Finally, it received lipid antigen presented by CD1d and played a role in innate immunity.

matters needing attention

NKT (natural killer T) cells are a special subset of T cells with both TCR and NK receptors on the cell surface. NKT cells can produce a lot of cytokines.
