The family of non-classical MHC class-I like CD1 molecules has an emerging role in human disease. Group 1 CD1 includes CD1a, CD1b, and CD1c which function to display lipids on the cell surface of antigen presenting cells for direct recognition by T cells. The recent advent of CD1 tetramers and the identification of novel lipid ligands has contributed towards the increasing number of CD1 restricted T cell clones captured. These advances have helped to identify novel donor unrestricted and semi-invariant T cell populations in humans and new mechanisms of T cell recognition. However, while there is opportunity to design broadly acting lipids and harness the therapeutic potential of conserved T cells, knowledge of their role in health and disease is lacking. We briefly summarise the current evidence implicating group 1 CD1 molecules in infection, cancer and autoimmunity and show that although CD1 are not as diverse as MHC, recent discoveries highlight their versatility as they exhibit intricate mechanisms of antigen presentation.

Abstract

The family of non-classical MHC class-I like CD1 molecules has an emerging role in human disease. Group 1 CD1 includes CD1a, CD1b, and CD1c which function to display lipids on the cell surface of antigen presenting cells for direct recognition by T cells. The recent advent of CD1 tetramers and the identification of novel lipid ligands has contributed towards the increasing number of CD1 restricted T cell clones captured. These advances have helped to identify novel donor unrestricted and semi-invariant T cell populations in humans and new mechanisms of T cell recognition. However, while there is opportunity to design broadly acting lipids and harness the therapeutic potential of conserved T cells, knowledge of their role in health and disease is lacking. We briefly summarise the current evidence implicating group 1 CD1 molecules in infection, cancer and autoimmunity and show that although CD1 are not as diverse as MHC, recent discoveries highlight their versatility as they exhibit intricate mechanisms of antigen presentation.
