Liver autoimmunity triggered by microbial activation of natural killer T cellsJochen Mattner
Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Committee on Immunology, Department of Pathology, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA
Cell Host Microbe 3:304-15. 2008....
Cutting edge: impaired glycosphingolipid trafficking and NKT cell development in mice lacking Niemann-Pick type C1 proteinYuval Sagiv
Committee on Immunology, Department of Pathology, University of Chicago, Chicago, IL 60637, USA
J Immunol 177:26-30. 2006..These findings reveal a blockade of lipid trafficking between endosome and lysosome as a consequence of NPC1 deficiency and suggest a common mechanism for the defects in lipid presentation and development of Valpha14-Jalpha18 NKT cells...
Exogenous and endogenous glycolipid antigens activate NKT cells during microbial infectionsJochen Mattner
Committee on Immunology, University of Chicago, Chicago, Illinois 60637, USA
Nature 434:525-9. 2005..These findings identify two novel antigenic targets of NKT cells in antimicrobial defence, and show that glycosylceramides are an alternative to LPS for innate recognition of the Gram-negative, LPS-negative bacterial cell wall...
Lysosomal glycosphingolipid recognition by NKT cellsDapeng Zhou
University of Chicago, Department of Pathology, Chicago, IL 60637, USA
Science 306:1786-9. 2004..We suggest that expression of iGb3 in peripheral tissues may be involved in controlling NKT cell responses to infections and malignancy and in autoimmunity...
Synthesis of diglycosylceramides and evaluation of their iNKT cell stimulatory propertiesYang Liu
Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, C100 BNSN, Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA
Bioorg Med Chem Lett 18:3052-5. 2008..We found that substitution did not significantly impact glycosidase activity or loading into CD1d...
c-Jun NH2-terminal kinase 2 inhibits gamma interferon production during Anaplasma phagocytophilum infectionJoao H F Pedra
Section of Infectious Diseases, Department of Internal Medicine, Yale University School of Medicine, New Haven, CT 06520, USA
Infect Immun 76:308-16. 2008..Collectively, these findings provide strong evidence that JNK2 is an important regulatory protein for IFN-gamma secretion upon challenge with A. phagocytophilum...
Synthesis and evaluation of stimulatory properties of Sphingomonadaceae glycolipidsXiangtian Long
Department of Chemistry and Biochemistry, C100 BNSN, Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah 84602, USA

A modified alpha-galactosyl ceramide for staining and stimulating natural killer T cellsYang Liu
Brigham Young University, Provo, UT 84602, USA
J Immunol Methods 312:34-9. 2006..We have developed an alpha-galactosyl ceramide with improved solubility over KRN7000 that effectively stains NKT cells, both mouse and human, and stimulates cytokine release at low concentrations...
NKT cells mediate organ-specific resistance against Leishmania major infectionJochen Mattner
Institute of Clinical Microbiology, Immunology and Hygiene, University of Erlangen Nuremberg, Germany
Microbes Infect 8:354-62. 2006..Thus, NKT cells fulfill organ-specific protective functions during infection with L. major, but are not essential for parasite control...
Structure and function of a potent agonist for the semi-invariant natural killer T cell receptorDirk M Zajonc
Department of Molecular Biology and The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California 92037, USA
Nat Immunol 6:810-8. 2005....
Effects of lipid chain lengths in alpha-galactosylceramides on cytokine release by natural killer T cellsRandal D Goff
Brigham Young University, Provo, Utah 84602, USA
J Am Chem Soc 126:13602-3. 2004..In similar fashion, the length of the acyl chain in alpha-galactosylceramides influences cytokine release profiles...
Protection against progressive leishmaniasis by IFN-betaJochen Mattner
Institute of Clinical Microbiology, Immunology and Hygiene, University of Erlangen Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany
J Immunol 172:7574-82. 2004..These results identify IFN-beta as a novel cytokine with a strong, dose-dependent protective effect against progressive cutaneous leishmaniasis that results from IL-12- and STAT4-dependent as well as -independent events...
Control of Leishmania major in the absence of Tyk2 kinaseUlrike Schleicher
Institute of Clinical Microbiology, Immunology and Hygiene, University of Erlangen Nuremberg, Erlangen, Germany
Eur J Immunol 34:519-29. 2004..Thus, Tyk2 is required for the IL-12 response of NK cells and CD8(+) T cells in L. major-infected mice, but not for the generation of Th1 cells and the ultimate control of the disease...
