whether NKT cells participate in rejection of islet allografts, using NKT cell–deficient mice. Survival
of islet allografts in streptozotocin-induced diabetic CD1d −/− mice or Vα14 NKT cell −/− ... Cited by 15 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 6 versions

after transplantation of islets from a single donor pancreas because of early graft loss (1, 2). Early
islet loss is estimated to occur in 50% of the transplanted islet mass (3) and occurs at ... Cited by 27 - Related articles - BL Direct - All 6 versions

activity to the regulation of autoimmune diseases; however, the regulatory function of CD1d-dependent
NKT cells in rejection responses against allogeneic graft is uncertain. In this study, we ... Cited by 23 - Related articles - All 8 versions
