Mouse NK1.1+ T cells: a new family of T cells

A P Vicari et al. Immunol Today. 1996 Feb.

Abstract

The NK1.1 antigen defines a subset of T cells that produce high titers of cytokines and express a restricted repertoire of T-cell receptors. Here, Alain Vicari and Albert Zlotnik discuss the characteristics of NK1.1+ T cells that distinguish them from the mainstream CD4+ helper or CD8+ cytotoxic families of T cells. It appears that NK1.1+ T cells may play major roles in the regulation of some immune responses.
