<i>Apolipoprotein E</i> reduces the number and activation of non-invariant Natural Killer T cells
2025-07-07
Abstract excerpt
Natural Killer T (NKT) cells, which modulate atherosclerosis, include two groups – invariant (iNKT) and variant (vNKT). These subsets differentially regulate the disease progression. Yet, the role of vNKTs in atherosclerosis remains unclear. We induced atherosclerosis by feeding high-fat diet (HFD) to Apoe -/- and analyzed the vNKTs in the liver and spleen. The vNKTs were termed non-iNKTs since they were negativ...
