Activation of Vα14(+) Natural Killer T Cells by α-Galactosylceramide Results in Development of Th1 Response and Local Host Resistance in Mice Infected with Cryptococcus neoformans

We examined the effect of α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) on the synthesis of gamma interferon (IFN-γ) and local resistance in mice infected intravenously with Cryptococcus neoformans. The level of IFN-γ in serum increased on day 3, reached a peak level on day 7, and decreased to the basal level on...
