1 17237411 In this study, we report the production and characterization of a NOD.Nkrp1(b).Nkt1(b) congenic mouse strain, apply microarray expression analyses to limit candidate genes within the 95% confidence region, identify Slamf1 (encoding signaling lymphocyte activation molecule) and Slamf6 (encoding Ly108) as potential candidates, and demonstrate retarded signaling lymphocyte activation molecule expression during T cell development of NOD mice, resulting in reduced expression at the CD4(+)CD8(+) stage, which is consistent with decreased NKT cell production and deranged tolerance induction in NOD mice.
2 17407193 A role for the activating NK-receptor NKG2D has been indicated in several autoimmune diseases in humans and in animal models of type 1 diabetes and multiple sclerosis, and treatment with monoclonal antibodies to NKG2D attenuated disease severity in these models.
3 17407193 In an adoptive transfer-induced model of colitis, we found a significantly higher frequency of CD4(+)NKG2D(+) cells in blood, mesenteric lymph nodes, colon, and spleen from colitic mice compared to BALB/c donor-mice.
4 17407193 We conclude that the frequency of CD4(+)NKG2D(+) cells increase during development of experimental colitis.
