Natural Killer T Cells Are Involved in Atherosclerotic Plaque Instability in Apolipoprotein-E Knockout Mice

The infiltration and activation of macrophages as well as lymphocytes within atherosclerotic lesion contribute to the pathogenesis of plaque rupture. We have demonstrated that invariant natural killer T (iNKT) cells, a unique subset of T lymphocytes that recognize glycolipid antigens, play a crucial...
