Abstract excerpt
iNKT cells are CD1d-restricted T cells that play a pro-inflammatory or regulatory role in infectious and autoimmune diseases. Thymic precursors of iNKT cells eventually develop into distinct iNKT1, iNKT2, and iNKT17 lineages in the periphery. It remains unclear whether iNKT cells retain developmental potential after lineage commitment. iNKT cells acquire a similar phenotype as tissue-resident memory T cells,...
