Much effort is underway to define the immunological functions of the CD1 multigene family, which encodes a separate lineage of Ag presentation molecules capable of presenting lipid and glycolipid Ags. To identify porcine CD1 homologues, a cosmid library was constructed and screened with a degenerate CD1 alpha3 domain probe. One porcine CD1 gene (pCD1.1) was isolated and fully characterized. The...
Lipid-specific T cells comprise a group of T cells that recognize lipids bound to the MHC class I-like CD1 molecules. There are four isoforms of CD1 that are expressed at the surface of antigen presenting cells and therefore capable of presenting lipid antigens: CD1a, CD1b, CD1c, and CD1d. Each one of these isoforms has distinct structural features and cellular localizations, which promotes bin...
CD1 antigens are cell-surface glycoproteins which have a molecular structure which is similar (consisting of extracellular domains alpha 1, alpha 2, and alpha 3, a transmembrane portion, and a cytoplasmic tail) to that of class I MHC molecules. Phylogenetic analysis of mammalian CD1 DNA sequences revealed that these genes are more closely related to the class I major histocompatibility complex ...
Both the CD4-CD8- (double negative) and CD4-CD8+ T cell lineages have been shown to contain T cells which recognize microbial lipid and glycolipid Ags in the context of human CD1 molecules. To determine whether T cells expressing the CD4 coreceptor could recognize Ag in the context of CD1, we derived CD4+ T cell lines from the lesions of leprosy patients. We identified three CD4+ Mycobacterium ...
Five CD1 molecules are expressed in humans and it is unclear whether they have specialized or redundant functions. We found that sulfatide is a promiscuous CD1-binding ligand and have isolated T cell clones that are specific for sulfatide and restricted by distinct CD1 molecules. These clones have been used to compare the capacity of different CD1 to present the same glycolipid, to induce effec...
Local recurrence of squamous cell cancer (SCC) causes high morbidity and is often readily accessible, making such patients potential candidates for gene therapy. Cyclin D1 (CD1), critical in the G1-S transition in the cell cycle, is amplified in 20-50% and overexpressed in up to 80% of head and neck SCC. Our earlier studies indicated that CD1 expression increased with progression from low grade...
Abetalipoproteinemia (ABL) is a rare Mendelian disorder of lipid metabolism due to genetic deficiency in microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP). It is associated with defects in MTP-mediated lipid transfer onto apolipoprotein B (APOB) and impaired secretion of APOB-containing lipoproteins. Recently, MTP was shown to regulate the CD1 family of lipid antigen-presenting molecules, but litt...
Molecular studies have shown that CD1 proteins present self and foreign lipid Ags to T cells, but the possible roles of CD1 in human autoimmune diseases in vivo are not known, especially for the group 1 CD1 isoforms (CD1a, CD1b, and CD1c). To investigate the hypothesis that CD1-restricted T cells might be activated and home to target tissues involved in Hashimoto's thyroiditis and Graves' disea...
The GDVII strain of Theiler's murine encephalomyelitis virus (TMEV) causes an acute fatal polioencephalomyelitis in mice. Infection of susceptible mice with the DA strain of TMEV results in an acute polioencephalomyelitis followed by chronic immune-mediated demyelination with virus persistence in the central nervous system (CNS); DA virus infection is used as an animal model for multiple sclero...
