Journal ArticleDOI
Reversible Defects in Natural Killer and Memory Cd8 T Cell Lineages in Interleukin 15–Deficient Mice
Mary K. Kennedy,Moira Glaccum,Sandra N. Brown,Eric A. Butz,Joanne L. Viney,Monica E. Embers,Naoto Matsuki,Keith Charrier,Lisa M. Sedger,Cynthia R. Willis,Kenneth Brasel,Philip J. Morrissey,Kim L. Stocking,JoAnn C. L. Schuh,Sebastian Joyce,Jacques J. Peschon +15 more
TL;DR: Critical roles for IL-15 in the development of specific lymphoid lineages are revealed and the ability to rescue lymphoid defects inIL-15−/− mice by IL- 15 administration represents a powerful means by which to further elucidate the biological roles of this cytokine.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distinct Roles of Dendritic Cells and B Cells in Va14Ja18 Natural T Cell Activation In Vivo
Jelena S. Bezbradica,Aleksandar K. Stanic,Naoto Matsuki,Hélène Bour-Jordan,Jeffrey A. Bluestone,James W. Thomas,Derya Unutmaz,Luc Van Kaer,Sebastian Joyce +8 more
TL;DR: It is reported that dendritic cells (DC) play a critical role in αGalCer-mediated activation of iNKT cells and subsequent transactivation of NK cells, and the differential immune outcome based on the type of APC that displays glycolipid Ags in vivo has implications for the design of therapies that harness the immunoregulatory functions of inKT cells.
Journal ArticleDOI
Lipid Protein Interactions: The Assembly of CD1d1 with Cellular Phospholipids Occurs in the Endoplasmic Reticulum
A. Dharshan De Silva,Jang-June Park,Naoto Matsuki,Aleksandar K. Stanic,Randy R. Brutkiewicz,M. Edward Medof,Sebastian Joyce +6 more
TL;DR: It is predicted that cellular lipids occlude the hydrophobic Ag-binding groove of CD1 during assembly until they are exchanged for a glycolipid Ag(s) within the recycling compartment for display on the plasma membrane, akin to the function of invariant chain in MHC class II assembly.
Journal ArticleDOI
NF-κB Controls Cell Fate Specification, Survival, and Molecular Differentiation of Immunoregulatory Natural T Lymphocytes
Aleksandar K. Stanic,Jelena S. Bezbradica,Jang-June Park,Naoto Matsuki,Ana L. Mora,Luc Van Kaer,Mark Boothby,Sebastian Joyce +7 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that antiapoptotic signals relayed by NF-κB critically control cell fate specification and molecular differentiation of iNKT cells and, hence, reveal a novel role for such signals within the immune system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Another View of T Cell Antigen Recognition: Cooperative Engagement of Glycolipid Antigens by Va14Ja18 Natural TCR
Aleksandar K. Stanic,Rangaiah Shashidharamurthy,Jelena S. Bezbradica,Naoto Matsuki,Yoshitaka Yoshimura,Sachiko Miyake,Eun Young Choi,Todd D. Schell,Luc Van Kaer,Satvir S. Tevethia,Derry C. Roopenian,Takashi Yamamura,Sebastian Joyce +12 more
TL;DR: It is discovered that the Vb repertoire of iNKT cells impacts recognition and Ag avidity, and that stimulation with suboptimal avidity Ag results in preferential expansion of high-affinity iN KT cells.
