NKT cells contribute to basal IL-4 production but are not required to induce experimental asthma
CD1d-deficiency results in a selective deletion of NKT cells in mice that is reported to prevent murine allergic airway disease (AAD). Because we find 2–3 fold lower basal IL-4 production in CD1d(-) mice than in wild-type (WT) mice, we hypothesized that the contribution made by NKT cells to AAD woul...
