Figure 1. Distinct iNKT cell subpopulations revealed by OCH-CD1d tetramer staining.

Figure 1

OCH- and K7-CD1d tetramer stainings of (A) a representative K7-stimulated human iNKT line after 14 d in vitro culture and (B) a healthy human volunteer's PBMC ex vivo are shown. While K7-CD1d tetramer staining identifies a single homogeneous population of iNKT cells (upper row), OCH-CD1d tetramer staining reveals the presence of different distinct iNKT populations within these samples (lower row).
