Phospholipids that have previously been demonstrated to function as antigens are CL, phosphatidylethanolamine, and phosphatidylserine.

Which is the example of lipids as antigens?

Noteworthy examples of antigenic CD1d self-lipids that activate iNKT cells include GSLs such as isoglobotrihexosylceramide (iGb3), β-glucosylceramide (β-GlcCer), β-galactosylceramide (β-GalCer), and lysosphingomyelin as well as phospholipids such as lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC), ether-bonded ...

Are lipids antigenic?

Lipid antigens are immunogenic for T cells when they are presented by CD1 antigen-presenting molecules that bind lipids. ... Lipid molecules are not soluble in water and are always associated with membranes or lipid-binding proteins in tissues and biological fluids.
