iNKT Cells Suppress Pathogenic NK1.1+CD8+ T Cells in DSS-Induced Colitis

T cells producing IFNγ play a pathogenic role in the development of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). To investigate the functions of CD1d-dependent invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells in experimental colitis induced in Yeti mice with dysregulated expression of IFNγ, we generated iNKT cell-defic...
