    Product Description

    CD1d is a lipid antigen-presenting molecule and a member of the group II CD1 family expressed by humans and mice.1 It is composed of a heavy chain, a transmembrane region, and a short intracellular C-terminal tail.1 The heavy chain contains three extracellular domains that associate with the light-chain β2-microglobulin. It is expressed primarily by antigen-presenting cells.1,2 CD1d is directly involved in the process of presenting lipid antigens to T cells and invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells to induce an immune response, including the secretion of specific cytokines depending on the antigen presented. Activation of iNKT cells by CD1d presentation of α-galactosylceramide (α-GalCer) in a murine model of melanoma reduces the number of metastases, but only when bone marrow-derived dendritic cells (BMDCs) were used to prolong iNKT cell responses.3
