Natural killer (NK) cells are forced to cope with different oxygen environments even under resting conditions. The adaptation to low oxygen is regulated by oxygen-sensitive transcription factors, the hypoxia-inducible factors (HIFs). The function of HIFs for NK cell activation and metabolic rewir...
Lung ischemia-reperfusion injury (LIRI) is a serious complication in critical clinical situations. Despite its importance, the specific role of type II natural killer T (NKT) cells in LIRI remains unclear. In this study, we establish a LIRI mouse model and demonstrate that sulfatide-reactive type...
