## Abstract NKT cell development takes place in the thymus, beginning when these cells branch away from CD4^+^CD8^+^ mainstream thymocytes upon expression of the Vα14Jα18 T cell receptor (TCR) and recognition of the CD1d molecule. Although NKT cells express an invariant TCR α chain, the diverse TCR
