CD1 and lipid antigens: intracellular pathways for antigen presentation.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recently, different members of the CD1 family of MHC-like molecules have been shown to sample different intracellular compartments to present lipid and glycolipid antigens to T cells. Emerging models suggest that CD1 may have evolved to monitor the integrity of membrane lipids and/or to present microbial lipid antigens to both alpha beta and gamma delta T cells.

The effect of intracellular trafficking of CD1d on the formation of TCR repertoire of NKT cells
CD1 molecules belong to non-polymorphic MHC class I-like proteins and present lipid antigens to T cells. Five different CD1 genes (CD1a-e) have been identified and classified into two groups. Group 1 include CD1a-c and present pathogenic lipid antigens to αβ T cells reminiscence of peptide antigen presentation by MHC-I molecules. CD1d is the only member of Group 2 and presents foreign and self ...
متن کاملThe T-Cell Response to Lipid Antigens of Mycobacterium tuberculosis
T-cells recognize lipid antigens presented by dedicated antigen-presenting molecules that belong to the CD1 family. This review discusses the structural properties of CD1 molecules, the nature of mycobacterial lipid antigens, and the phenotypic and functional properties of T-cells recognizing mycobacterial lipids. In humans, the five CD1 genes encode structurally similar glycoproteins that recy...
متن کاملGlycolipid Presentation by CD1
T cells recognize lipid antigens as complexes associated with CD1 antigen-presenting molecules. The biophysical properties of lipids impose unique mechanisms for lipid delivery, cell internalization, membrane trafficking, processing of large glycolipid antigens and loadingofCD1molecules. T cells specific for lipid antigens participate in the regulation of immune response, protection during infe...
متن کاملCD1 molecules efficiently present antigen in immature dendritic cells and traffic independently of MHC class II during dendritic cell maturation.
Upon exposure to Ag and inflammatory stimuli, dendritic cells (DCs) undergo a series of dynamic cellular events, referred to as DC maturation, that involve facilitated peptide Ag loading onto MHC class II molecules and their subsequent transport to the cell surface. Besides MHC molecules, human DCs prominently express molecules of the CD1 family (CD1a, -b, -c, and -d) and mediate CD1-dependent ...
متن کاملMycobacterium tuberculosis regulates CD1 antigen presentation pathways through TLR-2.
Mycobacterium tuberculosis remains a major pathogen of worldwide importance, which releases lipid Ags that are presented to human T cells during the course of tuberculosis infections. Here we report that cellular infection with live M. tuberculosis or exposure to mycobacterial cell wall products converted CD1- myeloid precursors into competent APCs that expressed group 1 CD1 proteins (CD1a, CD1...
