Cutaneous Immunization Rapidly Activates Liver Invariant Vα14 NKT Cells Stimulating B-1 B Cells to Initiate T Cell Recruitment for Elicitation of Contact Sensitivity

T cell recruitment to elicit contact sensitivity (CS) requires a CS-initiating process mediated by B-1 cells that produce IgM, which activates complement to promote T cell passage into the tissues. We now show that Vα14i NKT cells induce B-1 cell activation likely by releasing IL-4 early postimmuniz...
