Figures & data
Figure 1. The balance between Type I and Type II natural killer T cells and regulatory T cells in the control of antitumor immunity. Type I natural killer T (NKT) weaken the immunosuppressive activity of their Type II counterparts, leaving regulatory T cells (Tregs) as dominant immunosuppressors (left panel). In the absence of a balance between Type I and II NKT cells, the former are unable to effectively inhibit the latter, so both Tregs and Type II NKT cells exert strong immunosuppressive effects (right panel).
