摘要: Development of invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells requires the presentation lipid ligand(s) by CD1d molecules in thymus. The glycosphingolipid (GSL) isoglobotrihexosylceramide (iGb3) has been proposed as iNKT cell-selecting ligand thymus and to be involved peripheral activation dendritic (DCs). However, there is no direct biochemical evidence for presence iGb3 mouse or human DCs. Using a highly sensitive HPLC assay, only tissue where could detected was dorsal root ganglion (DRG). not other any tissues analyzed, including Even mutant mice that store isoglobo-series GSLs DRG, we were still unable detect these therefore unlikely physiologically relevant humans. A detailed study now warranted better understand nature vivo.
