Natural killer-like nonspecific tumor cell lysis mediated by specific ligand-activated Vα14 NKT cells

We have recently identified α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) as a specific ligand for an invariant Vα14/Vβ8.2 T cell receptor exclusively expressed on the majority of Vα14 NKT cells, a novel subset of lymphocytes. Here, we report that α-GalCer selectively activates Vα14 NKT cells resulting in prevent...
