CD1d molecule (CD1d)

Target
CD1d
Molecular classification
MHC class I-like molecule, Glycoprotein
01

Overview

CD1d is a non-polymorphic MHC class I-like molecule that presents lipid and glycolipid antigens to iNKT cells. This interaction triggers iNKT cell activation, leading to the release of cytokines and cytotoxic activity, influencing both innate and adaptive immunity. CD1d plays a crucial role in various diseases, including asthma, cancer, infectious diseases, and autoimmune disorders, making it a potential therapeutic target.
